Simple current extensions and permutation orbifolds in string theory (1108.0551v1)
Published 2 Aug 2011 in hep-th, math-ph, and math.MP
Abstract: We review extensions by integer spin simple currents in two-dimensional conformal field theories and their applications in string theory. In particular, we study the problem of resolving the fixed points of a simple current and apply the formalism to the permutation orbifold. In terms of string compactifications, we construct permutations of N=2 minimal models and use them as building blocks in heterotic Gepner models.
