The gauged SL(2,R)/U(1) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model is classically an integrable conformal field theory. We have found a Lax pair representation for the non-linear equations of motion, and a B"acklund transformation. A…
In this paper, we establish the connection between the quantized W-algebra of ${\frak sl}(2,1)$ and quantum parafermions of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$ that a shifted product of the two quantum parafermions of $U_q(\hat {\frak sl}(2))$…
Using a gauge invariant reduction we directly integrate the SL(2,R)/U(1) WZNW theory. We prove that the conserved parafermions of this theory are coset currents. Quantum mechanically, the parafermion algebra, the energy-momentum tensor, and…
Free field representations of vertex algebra in SL(2,R)/U(1) x U(1) WZNW model are constructed by considering a twisted version of the Bershadsky-Kutasov free field description of discrete states in the two-dimensional black hole CFT. These…
The (exclusion) statistics of parafermions is used to study degeneracies of quasiholes over the paired (or in general clustered) quantum Hall states. Focus is on the Z_k and su(3)_k/u(1)^2 parafermions, which are used in the description of…
We investigate a class of conformal Non-Abelian-Toda models representing a noncompact $SL(2,R)/U(1)$ parafermionions (PF) interacting with a specific abelian Toda theories and having a global U(1) symmetry. A systematic derivation of the…
The $SL(2,\R)$ WZNW $\rightarrow$ Liouville reduction leads to a nontrivial phase space on the classical level both in $0+1$ and $1+1$ dimensions. To study the consequences in the quantum theory, the quantum mechanics of the $0+1$…
The $SL(2,R)/U(1)$ gauged WZWN model is modified by a topological term and the accompanying change in the geometry of the two dimensional target space is determined. The possibility of this additional term arises from a symmetry in the…
We study a W-algebra of central charge 2(k-1)/(k+2) with k a positive integer greater than 1
The differential and variational calculus on the $SL_{q}(2,R)$ group is constructed. The spontaneous breaking symmetry in the WZNW model with $SL_{q}(2,R)$ quantum group symmetry and in the $\sigma$-models with ${SL_{q}(2,R)/U_{h}(1)}$…
In the Chern-Simons gauge theory formulation of the spinning (2+1) dimensional black hole, we may treat the horizon and the spatial infinity as boundaries. We obtain the actions induced on both boundaries, applying the Faddeev and…
We modify the $SL(2,{\bf R})/U(1)$ WZW theory, which was shown to describe strings in a 2D black hole, to be invariant under chiral $U(1)$ gauge symmetry by introducing a Steukelberg field. We impose several interesting gauge conditions for…
The conformal field theory based on the $g/u(1)^d$ coset construction is treated as the WZNW theory for the affine Lie algebra $\hat g$ with the constrained $\hat u(1)^d$ subalgebra.Using a modification of the generalized canonical…
We show that the gauged SL(2,R) WZWN model yields arbitrary spacetimes in two dimensions. The c = 1 matter field and the black hole singularity are just two particular cases in these spacetimes.
We consider the gauging of $ SL(2,R) $ WZNW model by its nilpotent subgroup E(1). The resulting space-time of the corresponding sigma model is seen to collapse to a one dimensional field theory of Liouville. Gauging the diagonal subgroup $…
We show how to write an off-shell action for the $SU(2)\times U(1)$ supersymmetric WZW model in terms of $N=2$ chiral and twisted chiral multiplets. We discuss the $N=4$ supersymmetry of this model and exhibit the $N=4$ superconformal…
We show that several WZW coset models can be obtained by applying O(d,d) symmetry transformations (referred to as twisting) on WZW models. This leads to a conjecture that WZW models gauged by U(1)^n subgroup can be obtained by twisting…
A pair of conformal sigma models related by Poisson-Lie T-duality is constructed by starting with the O(2,2) Drinfeld double. The duality relates the standard SL(2,R) WZNW model to a constrained sigma model defined on SL(2,R) group space.…
Gauged WZNW models are integrable conformal field theories. We integrate the classical \slu{} theory with periodic boundary conditions, which describes closed strings moving in a curved target-space geometry. We calculate its Poisson…
We show that the symmetry algebra of the $SL(2,R)_{k}/U(1)$ coset model is a non-linear deformation of $W_{\infty}$, characterized by $k$. This is a universal $W$-algebra which linearizes in the large $k$ limit and truncates to $W_{N}$ for…
