Yang-Baxter deformation of WZW model based on Lie supergroups: The cases of $GL(1|1)$ and $(C^3 +A)$

Abstract: We proceed to generalize the Yang-Baxter (YB) deformation of Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) model to the Lie supergroups case. This generalization enables us to utilize various kinds of solutions of the (modified) graded classical Yang-Baxter equation ((m)GCYBE) to classify the YB deformations of WZW models based on the Lie supergroups. We obtain the inequivalent solutions (classical r-matrices) of the (m)GCYBE for the $gl(1|1)$ and $({\cal C}^3 +{\cal A})$ Lie superalgebras in the non-standard basis, in such a way that the corresponding automorphism transformations are employed. Then, the YB deformations of the WZW models based on the $GL(1|1)$ and $(C^3 + A)$ Lie supergroups are specified by skew-supersymmetric classical r-matrices satisfying (m)GCYBE. In some cases for both families of deformed models, the metrics remain invariant under the deformation, while the components of $B$-fields are changed. After checking the conformal invariance of the models up to one-loop order, it is concluded that the $GL(1|1)$ and $(C^3 + A)$ WZW models are conformal theories within the classes of the YB deformations preserving the conformal invariance. However, our results are interesting in themselves, but at a constructive level, may prompt many new insights into (generalized) supergravity solutions.
