The General Coset Orbifold Action

Martin B Halpern, F. Wágner

Open publisher page 14 citations

Abstract

Recently an action formulation, called the general WZW orbifold action, was given for each sector of every WZW orbifold. In this paper we gauge this action by general twisted gauge groups to find the action formulation of each sector of every coset orbifold. Connection with the known current-algebraic formulation of coset orbifolds is discussed as needed, and some large examples are worked out in further detail.
