Abstract

The Large Vector Multiple (LVM) is the relevant gauge multiplet for gauging isometries acting on both the chiral and the twisted chiral fields in a (2,2)(2, 2) sigma model. Here we show that a recently proposed new gauge multiplet is a constrained or partially dualized version of the LVM. Gauging using this multiplet results in a (2,2)(2, 2) βγ\beta\gamma system interacting with a sigma model.
