Deformations of WZW models

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v2

Abstract

Current-current deformations for WZW models of semisimple compact groups are discussed in a sigma model approach. We start with the abelian rank one group U(1). Afterwards, we keep the rank one but allow for non abelian structures by considering SU(2). Finally, we present the general case of rank larger than one.
