Description
We study closed N = 2 strings on orbifolds of the form T4/Z2 and C2/Z2 . We compute the torus partition function and prove its modular invariance. We analyze the BRST cohomology of the theory, construct the vertex operators, and compute three and four point amplitudes of twisted and untwisted states. We introduce a background of D-branes, and compute twist states correlators
