Abstract

There exist a few non-abelian group manifolds, with twisted boundary conditions, where 4D superstrings with their massless fermionic excitations, including gravitinos, can propagate freely. It turns out that the associated Wess-Zumino-Witten action is fermionizable and puts severe restrictions on the possible modular-invariant string models built up with world-sheet fermions.
