Defects and boundary RG flows in $\mathbb{C}/{\mathbb{Z}}_d$

Abstract

We show that topological defects in the language of Landau-Ginzburg models carry information about the RG flow between the non-compact orbifolds $\mathbb{C}/{\mathbb{Z}}_d$. We show that such defects correctly implement the bulk-induced RG flow on the boundary.
