Conformal boundary states for free bosons and fermions

Abstract: A family of conformal boundary states for a free boson on a circle is constructed. The family contains superpositions of conventional U(1)-preserving Neumann and Dirichlet branes, but for general parameter values the boundary states are fundamental and preserve only the conformal symmetry. The relative overlaps satisfy Cardy's condition, and each boundary state obeys the factorisation constraint.It is also argued that, together with the conventional Neumann and Dirichlet branes, these boundary states already a… Show more

“…Our analysis implies in particular that for this theory the usual Neumann and Dirichlet branes already account for all N = 2 D-branes. This is in marked contrast to the results in the non-supersymmetric case, or the case with N = 1 supersymmetry, where there exist conformal or N = 1 superconformal D-branes that do not have an interpretation in terms of Neumann or Dirichlet branes [4].…”
