We represent free-field construction of boundary states in Gepner models basing on free-field realization of N=2 superconformal minimal models. Using this construction we consider the open string spectrum between the boundary states and…
This is a review article of my recent papers on free field construction of D-branes in N = 2 superconformal minimal models and Gepner models.
The description of B-type D-branes on a tensor product of two N=2 minimal models in terms of matrix factorisations is related to the boundary state description in conformal field theory. As an application we show that the D0- and D2-brane…
We present exact expressions for elementary boundary states which describe D-branes preserving 16 or fewer supercharges in type II superstring compactified on certain self-dual 4-tori. While being manifestly superconformal, our boundary…
We discuss D-branes from a conformal field theory point of view. In this approach, branes are described by boundary states providing sources for closed string modes, independently of classical notions. The boundary states must satisfy…
All the known rational boundary states for Gepner models can be regarded as permutation branes. On general grounds, one expects that topological branes in Gepner models can be encoded as matrix factorisations of the corresponding…

Boundary states corresponding to wrapped D-branes in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type II strings are discussed using Gepner models. In particular boundary conditions corresponding to D-0 branes and D-instantons in four dimensions are…
Motivated by recent developments in string theory, we study the structure of boundary conditions in arbitrary conformal field theories. A boundary condition is specified by two types of data: first, a consistent collection of reflection…
We propose a new prescription of how to represent D-branes in Gepner models in more general homology classes than those in the previous constructions. The central role is played by a certain projection acting on the Recknagel-Schomerus…
Generalised permutation branes in products of N=2 minimal models play an important role in accounting for all RR charges of Gepner models. In this paper an explicit conformal field theory construction of these generalised permutation branes…
N-fold tensor products of a rational CFT carry an action of the permutation group S_N. These automorphisms can be used as gluing conditions in the study of boundary conditions for tensor product theories. We present an ansatz for such…
The theory of a massless two-dimensional scalar field with a periodic boundary interaction is considered. At a critical value of the period this system defines a conformal field theory and can be re-expressed in terms of free fermions,…
In tensor products of a left-right symmetric CFT, one can define permutation orientifolds by combining orientation reversal with involutive permutation symmetries. We construct the corresponding crosscap states in general rational CFTs and…
We construct the boundary state for the D-brane in the SU(2) group manifold directly in terms of the group variables. We propose a matching condition for the left- and the right-moving sectors including the zero modes that describes a…
We study the boundary states of (p', p) rational conformal field theories having a W symmetry of the type A(r) using the multi-component free-field formalism. The classification of primary fields for these models given in the literature is…
A free fermion representation of the rolling tachyon boundary conformal field theory is constructed. The representation is used to obtain an explicit, compact, exact expression for the boundary state. We use the boundary state to compute…
The geometry of $k^{K}$ Gepner model, where $k+2=2K$ is investigated by free-field representation known as "$bc\bet\gm$"-system. Using this representation it is shown directly that internal sector of the model is given by Landau-Ginzburg…
We provide evidence for the existence of non-trivial unitary conformal boundary conditions for a three-dimensional free scalar field, which can be obtained via a coupling to the m'th unitary diagonal minimal model. For large m we can…
The Wakimoto-type free-field approach is applied to the boundary integer-level simple $\widehat{g}(k)$ Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models, with a renewed motivation. With the introduction of the Lauricella hypergeometric functions…
