Twistfield Perturbations of Vertex Operators in the Z2-Orbifold Model

Abstract

We apply Kadanoff's theory of marginal deformations of conformal field theories to twistfield deformations of Z2 orbifold models in K3 moduli space. These deformations lead away from the Z2 orbifold sub-moduli-space and hence help to explore conformal field theories which have not yet been understood. In particular, we calculate the deformation of the conformal dimensions of vertex operators for p2<1 in second order perturbation theory.
