Anomalies, Extensions and Orbifolds
Daniel Robbins, Eric Sharpe, Thomas Vandermeulen
We investigate gauge anomalies in the context of orbifold conformal field theories. Such anomalies manifest as failures of modular invariance in the constituents of the orbifold pa…
A generalization of decomposition in orbifolds
Daniel Robbins, Eric Sharpe, Thomas Vandermeulen
This paper describes a generalization of decomposition in orbifolds. In general terms, decomposition states that two-dimensional orbifolds and gauge theories whose gauge groups hav…
Modular Orbits at Higher Genus
Daniel Robbins, Thomas Vandermeulen
We extend the modular orbits method of constructing a two-dimensional orbifold conformal field theory to higher genus Riemann surfaces. We find that partition functions on surfaces…
Orbifolds from Modular Orbits
Daniel Robbins, Thomas Vandermeulen
Given a two-dimensional conformal field theory with a global symmetry, we propose a method to implement an orbifold construction by taking orbits of the modular group. For the case…
