We study the nonunitary diagonal cosets constructed from admissible representations of Kač-Moody algebras at fractional level, with an emphasis on the question of field identification. Generic classes of field identifications are obtained from the analysis of the modular S matrix. These include the usual class related to outer automorphisms, as well as some intrinsically nonunitary field identi...

Electric-magnetic duality and higher dimensional analogues are obtained as symmetries in generalized coset constructions, similar to the axial-vector duality of twodimensional coset models described by Roček and Verlinde. We also study global aspects of duality between p-forms and (d−p−2)-forms in d-manifolds. In particular, the modular duality anomaly is governed by the Euler character as in f...

Coset enumeration is one of the basic tools for investigating nitely presented groups. Many enumerations require signiicant resources, in terms of CPU time or memory space. We develop a fully functional parallel coset enumeration procedure and we discuss some of the issues involved in such parallelisation using the POSIX threads library. Our results can equally well be applied to any master-sla...

We derive the Green-Schwarz action on AdS 5 × S 5 using an alternate version of the coset superspace construction. By Wick rotations and Lie algebra identifications we bring the coset to GL(4|4)/(Sp(4) ⊗ GL(1)) 2 , which allows us to represent the conformal transformations on unconstrained matrices. The derivation is more streamlined even for the bosonic sector, and conformal symmetry is manife...
