Systematic approach to cyclic orbifolds

High Energy Physics - Theory 2014-11-18 v4

Abstract

We introduce an orbifold induction procedure which provides a systematic construction of cyclic orbifolds, including their twisted sectors. The procedure gives counterparts in the orbifold theory of all the current-algebraic constructions of conformal field theory and enables us to find the orbifold characters and their modular transformation properties.
