$S_N$ Orbifolds and String Interactions

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-05-04 v2

Abstract

We study interacting features of SNS_N Orbifold CFTs. Concentrating on characters (associated with SNS_N Orbifold primaries) we first formulate a novel procedure for evaluating them through GL()+GL(\infty)_+ tracing. The result is a polynomial formula which we show gives results equivalent to those found by Bantay. From this we deduce a hierarchy of commuting Hamiltonians featuring locality in the induced space, and nonlinear string-type interactions.
