Staggered modules of $N=2$ superconformal minimal models

Abstract

We investigate a class of reducible yet indecomposable modules over the $N=2$ superconformal algebras. These so-called staggered modules exhibit a non-diagonalisable action of the Virasoro mode $L_{0}$. Using recent results on the coset construction of $N=2$ minimal models, we explicitly construct such modules for central charges $c = -1$ and $c = -6$. We also describe spectral-flow orbits and symmetries of the families of staggered modules which arise via the coset.
