(0,2) hybrid models

Abstract: We introduce a class of (0,2) superconformal field theories based on hybrid geometries, generalizing various known constructions. We develop techniques for the computation of the complete massless spectrum when the theory can be interpreted as determining a perturbative heterotic string compactification. We provide evidence for surprising properties regarding RG flows and IR accidental symmetries in (0,2) hybrid CFTs. We also study the conditions for embedding a hybrid theory in a particular class of gauged li… Show more

“…While we could show that the sphere partition function in hybrid phases reduces to the proposed form and that the result is consistent with results of the mathematics literature, a better understanding of the physics of the hybrid models would be desirable. See for instance [52][53][54] for recent results. Furthermore it would be interesting to see if the (conjectural) I-functions and Gamma classes we computed for two-parameter hybrid models and oneparameter pseudo-hybrid models are consistent with FJRW theory.…”

“…A class of such examples are hybrid models that are fibrations of Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds over some base manifold B. In the physics literature they have been studied for instance in [52][53][54]. In the mathematics literature there is a generalisation of FJRW theory that captures a class of one-parameter hybrid models [20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…Upon quotienting by the U(1) gauge group the x, z coordinates describe a compact manifold B = P N 1 +N 2 −2 {a i }{d P } , while the massless fields p, y 1j , y 2j transform as appropriate line bundles over B. This is precisely the structure of a hybrid model [16] E → Y , where the target space is given by…”

“…We will show that not all is lost however. This locus of singular complex structures admits an alternative description in terms of a (0,2) hybrid model [16]. Briefly, such models are defined as NLSMs on the geometry E → Y , where the target space Y is generically non-compact and not necessarily Calabi-Yau, equipped with a (0,2) superpotential interaction J ∈ Γ(E * ) such that the space of classical vacua is a compact Kähler subspace J −1 (0) = B ⊂ Y .…”
