Abstract

We study the twisted version of the supersymmetric G/T=SU(n)/U(1)⊗(n−1)gaugedWess−Zumino−Wittenmodel.BystudyingitsfixedpointsunderBRSTtransformationthismodelisshowntobereducedtoasimpletopologicalfieldtheory,thatis,thetopologicalmattersystemintheK.Li′stheoryof2dimensionalgravityforthecaseofG/T=SU(n)/U(1)^{\otimes(n-1)} gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten model. By studying its fixed points under BRST transformation this model is shown to be reduced to a simple topological field theory, that is, the topological matter system in the K.Li's theory of 2 dimensional gravity for the case of n=2,anditsgeneralizationfor, and its generalization for n \geq 3$.
