(2,2)-superconformal field theories near orbifold points
Description
A thorough analysis of the 'blowing-up' modes of the Z6-orbifold based on the Lie algebra A2+D4 is presented. We discover that the descriptions of these modes in the language of superconformal field theory and Calabi-Yau compactification are not immediately in agreement. A solution to this apparent inconsistency is offered which leads to the possibility of differentiably distinct Calabi-Yau manifolds giving isomorphic physics. (orig.)
