The W_k structure of the Z_k^(3/2) models
arXiv:0906.0949
Abstract
Generalized Z_k^(r/2) parafermionic theories - characterized by the dimension (r/2)(1-1/k) of the basic parafermionic field - provide potentially interesting quantum-Hall trial wavefunctions. Such wavefunctions reveal a W_k structure. This suggests the equivalence of (a subclass of) the Z_k^(r/2) models and the W_k(k+1,k+r) ones. This is demonstrated here for r=3 (the gaffnian series). The agreement of the parafermionic and the W spectra relies on the prior determination of the field identifications in the parafermionic case.
