Interacting Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten Models
We study the system of two WZNW models coupled to each other via the current-current interaction. The system is proven to possess the strong/weak coupling duality symmetry. The strong coupling phase of this theory is discussed in detail. It is shown that in this phase the interacting WZNW models approach non-trivial conformal points along the renormalization group flow. The relation between the principal chiral model and interacting WZNW models is investigated.
