We study Poisson-Lie T-duality of the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) models which are obtained from a class of Drinfel'd doubles and its generalization. In this case, the resultant WZNW models are known to be classically self-dual under…

The observation that SU(3)/SU(2) ~ S^5 implies the existence of a particularly simple quantized topological action, or Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) term. This action plays an important role in anomaly cancellation in extensions of the Standard…

N=2 three dimensional Supergravity with internal $R-$symmetry generators can be understood as a two dimensional chiral Wess-Zumino-Witten model. In this paper, we present the reduced phase space description of the theory, which turns out to…

We study solutions of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation for discrete representations of SU(2)_k at rational level k+2=p/q using a regular basis in which the braid matrices are well defined for all spins. We show that at spin J=(j+1)p-1…
