Supersymmetric Orientifolds of Gepner Models

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-10 v2

Abstract

Supersymmetric orientifolds of four dimensional Gepner Models are constructed in a systematic way. For all levels of the Gepner model being odd the generic expression for both the A-type and the B-type Klein bottle amplitude is derived. The appearing massless tadpoles are canceled by introducing appropriate boundary states of Recknagel/Schomerus(RS). After determining the Moebius strip amplitude we extract general expressions for the tadpole cancellation conditions. We discuss the issue of chirality for such supersymmetric orientifold models and finally present a couple of examples in detail.
