Rational Conformal Field Theories With G 2 Holonomy
We study conformal field theories for strings propagating on compact, seven-dimensional manifolds with G 2 holonomy. In particular, we describe the construction of rational examples of such models. We argue that analogues of Gepner models are to be constructed based not on N = 1 minimal models, but on Z 2 orbifolds of N = 2 models. In Z 2 orbifolds of Gepner models times a circle, it turns out ...
متن کاملKnot invariants from rational conformal field theories
A framework for studying knot and link invariants from any rational conformal field theory is developed. In particular, minimal models, superconformal models and WN models are studied. The invariants are related to the invariants obtained from the Wess-Zumino models associated with the coset representations of these models. Possible Chern-Simons representation of these models is also indicated....
متن کاملBoundary Conditions in Rational Conformal Field Theories
We develop further the theory of Rational Conformal Field Theories (RCFTs) on a cylinder with specified boundary conditions emphasizing the role of a triplet of algebras: the Verlinde, graph fusion and Pasquier algebras. We show that solving Cardy’s equation, expressing consistency of a RCFT on a cylinder, is equivalent to finding integer valued matrix representations of the Verlinde algebra. T...
متن کاملRational Conformal Field Theories and Complex Multiplication
We study the geometric interpretation of two dimensional rational conformal field theories, corresponding to sigma models on Calabi-Yau manifolds. We perform a detailed study of RCFT’s corresponding to T 2 target and identify the Cardy branes with geometric branes. The T ’s leading to RCFT’s admit “complex multiplication” which characterizes Cardy branes as specific D0-branes. We propose a cond...
متن کاملThe non-chiral fusion rules in rational conformal field theories
We introduce a general method in order to construct the non-chiral fusion rules which determine the operator content of the operator product algebra for rational conformal field theories. We are particularly interested in the models of the complementary D−like solutions of the modular invariant partition functions with cyclic center ZN . We find that the non-chiral fusion rules have a ZN−gradin...
