We investigate in detail the topological gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models describing topological Kazama-Suzuki models based on complex Grassmannians. We show that there is a topological sector in which the ring of observables (constructed…
We study the $N = 2$ coset models in their formulation as supersymmetric gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. A model based on the coset $G/H$ is invariant under a symmetry group isomorphic to $\Z_{k+Q}$, where $k$ is the level of the model…
The twisted G/H models are constructed as twisted supersymmetric gauged WZW models. We analyze the case of $G=SU(N)$, $H=SU(N_1)\times ...\times SU(N_n)\times U(1)^r$ with $rank\ G =\ rank\ H$, and discuss possible generalizations. We…
We extend our analysis of the gauging of rigid symmetries in bosonic two-dimensional sigma models with Wess-Zumino terms in the action to the case of world-sheets with defects. A structure that permits a non-anomalous coupling of such sigma…
We study the twisted version of the supersymmetric $G/T=SU(n)/U(1)^{\otimes(n-1)} gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model. By studying its fixed points under BRST transformation this model is shown to be reduced to a simple topological field…
We construct Cardy states in the Kazama-Suzuki model G/H x U(1), which satisfy the boundary condition twisted by the automorphisms of the coset theory. We classify all the automorphisms of G/H x U(1) induced from those of the G theory. The…
A study of the gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models is given focusing on the effect of topologically non-trivial configurations of gauge fields. A correlation function is expressed as an integral over a moduli space of holomorphic bundles with…
A general Lagrangian formulation of integrably deformed G/H-coset models is given. We consider the G/H-coset model in terms of the gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten action and obtain an integrable deformation by adding a potential energy term…
We consider gauged sigma-models from a Riemann surface into a Kaehler and hamiltonian G-manifold X. The supersymmetric N=2 theory can always be twisted to produce a gauged A-model. This model localizes to the moduli space of solutions of…
In this paper we study the general conditions that have to be met for a gauged extension of a two-dimensional bosonic sigma-model to exist. In an inversion of the usual approach of identifying a global symmetry and then promoting it to a…
Global symmetries can be generalised to transformations generated by topological operators, including cases in which the topological operator does not have an inverse. A family of such topological operators are intimately related to…
It is shown that Kazama-Suzuki conditions for the denominator subgroup of N=2 superconformal $G/H$ coset model determine Generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler geometry on the target space of the corresponding N=2 supersymmetric $\sigma$-model.
We revisit the gauging of rigid symmetries in two-dimensional bosonic sigma models with a Wess-Zumino term in the action. Such a term is related to a background closed 3-form H on the target space. More exactly, the sigma-model Feynman…
We study the "topological gauged WZW model associated with $SU(2)/U(1)$",which is defined as the twisted version of the corresponding supersymmetric gauged WZW model. It is shown that this model is equivalent to a topological conformal…
We revisit supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on the target manifold $CP^{N-1}$ and $SO(N)/SO(N-2)\times U(1)$ in four dimensions. These models are formulated as gauged linear models, but it is indicated that the Wess-Zumino term should…
We review the algebraic approach to super non-Abelian T-Duality considered in [1], focusing on symmetric and semi-symmetric coset spaces on $G/H$. We discuss a potential impediment, appearing in these models when integrating out the gauge…
Kazama-Suzuki coset models is an interesting class of N=2 supersymmetric models of conformal field theory which are used to build realistic models of superstring in 4 dimensions. We formulate Kazama-Suzuki construction of N=2 superconformal…
We construct a one-to-one map between the primary fields of the N=2 superconformal Kazama-Suzuki models G(m,n,k) and G(k,n,m) based on complex Grassmannian cosets, using level-rank duality of Wess-Zumino-Witten models. We then show that…
The aim of this work is to present a general theory of coset models G/H in which different left and right actions of H on G are gauged. Our main results include a formula for their modular invariant partition function, the construction of a…
We study two-dimensional WZW models with target space a nonreductive Lie group. Such models exist whenever the Lie group possesses a bi-invariant metric. We show that such WZW models provide a lagrangian description of the nonreductive…
