Wess-Zumino-Witten model off criticality
We study the renormalization group flow properties of the WessZumino-Witten model in the region of couplings between g2 = 0 and g2 = 4π/k, by evaluating the two-loop Zamolodchikov’s c-function. We also discuss the region of negative couplings.
متن کاملGauging Wess-zumino-witten Models
We review some aspects of gauged WZW models. By choosing a solvable subgroup as gauge group, one is lead to three main applications: the construction of field theories with an extended conformal symmetry, the construction of the effective action of (extended) 2D gravities and the systematic construction of string theories with some extended gauge symmetry.
متن کاملPresentations of Wess-zumino-witten Fusion Rings
The fusion rings of Wess-Zumino-Witten models are re-examined. Attention is drawn to the difference between fusion rings over Z (which are often of greater importance in applications) and fusion algebras over C. Complete proofs are given characterising the fusion algebras (over C) of the SU (r + 1) and Sp (2r) models in terms of the fusion potentials, and it is shown that the analagous potentia...
متن کاملOn Global Aspects Of Gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten Model
1 INTRODUCTION Soon after Albert Einstein has presented the general theory of relativity, Hermann Weyl made an attempt to derive the electromagnetic force as well as the grav-itational force from one common geometric structure of the space-time.[39] The starting point of his theory is to insist that there is no preferred scale structure in the universe, so that we have to choose a gauge at each...
متن کاملFour-dimensional Wess-Zumino-Witten actions
We shall give an axiomatic construction of Wess-Zumino-Witten actions valued in G = SU(N), N ≥ 3. It is realized as a functor WZ from the category of conformally flat four-dimensional manifolds to the category of line bundles with connection that satisfies, besides the axioms of a topological field theory, the axioms which abstract the characteristics of Wess-Zumino-Witten actions. To each conf...
