Averaging over moduli in deformed WZW models

چکیده
WZW models live on a moduli space parameterized by current-current deformations. The defines an ensemble of conformal field theories, which generically have $N$ abelian conserved currents and central charge $c > N$. We calculate the average partition function show that it can be interpreted as sum over 3-manifolds. This suggests ensemble-averaged theory has holographic dual, generalizing recent results Narain CFTs. bulk theory, at perturbative level, is identified $U(1)^{2N}$ Chern-Simons coupled to additional matter fields. From mathematical perspective, our principal result Siegel-Weil formula for characters affine Lie algebra.

Deformed Coset Models From Gauged WZW Actions
A general Lagrangian formulation of integrably deformed G/H-coset models is given. We consider the G/H-coset model in terms of the gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten action and obtain an integrable deformation by adding a potential energy term Tr(gTgT̄ ), where algebra elements T, T̄ belong to the center of the algebra h associated with the subgroup H. We show that the classical equation of motion of the ...
متن کاملNéron models over moduli of stable curves
We construct Deligne-Mumford stacks Pd,g representable over Mg parametrizing Néron models of Jacobians as follows. Let K = k(B) be a one-dimensional function field and let XK be a smooth genus-g curve over K admitting stable minimal model over B. The Néron model N(PicXK) −→ B is the base change of Pd,g via the moduli map B −→ Mg of f , that is: N(Pic XK) ∼= Pd,g ×Mg B. Pd,g is compactified by a...
متن کاملWzw-models in Extended Superspace
We find the complex structure on the dual of a complex target space. For N = (2, 2) systems, we prove that the space orthogonal to the kernel of the commutator of the left and right complex structures is always integrable, and hence the kernel is parametrized by chiral and twisted chiral superfield coordinates. We then analyze the particular case of SU(2) × SU(2), and are led to a new N = 2 sup...
متن کاملLogarithmic Yangians in WZW models
A new action of the Yangians in the WZW models is displayed. Its structure is generic and level independent. This Yangian is the natural extension at the conformal point of the one unravelled in massive theories with current algebras. Expectingly, this new symmetry of WZWmodels will lead to a deeper understanding of the integrable structure of conformal field theories and their deformations. 12...
متن کاملGauged WZW Models
As shown by Witten the N = 1 supersymmetric gauged WZW model based on a group G has an extended N = 2 supersymmetry if the gauged subgroup H is so chosen that G/H is Kähler. We extend Witten’s result and prove that the N = 1 supersymmetric gauged WZW models over G×U(1) are actually invariant under N = 4 superconformal transformations if the gauged subgroup H is such that G/(H × SU(2)) is a quat...
