Abstract
We recently studied two large but disjoint classes of twisted open WZW strings: the open-string sectors of the WZW orientation orbifolds and the so-called basic class of twisted open WZW strings. In this paper, we discuss all T-dualizations of the basic class to construct the general twisted open WZW string — which includes the disjoint classes above as special cases. For the general case, we give the branes and twisted noncommutative geometry at the classical level and the twisted open-string KZ equations at the operator level. Many examples of the general construction are discussed, including in particular the simple case of twisted free-bosonic open strings. We also revisit the open-string sectors of the general WZW orientation orbifold in further detail. For completeness, we finally review the general twisted boundary state equation which provides a complementary description of the general twisted open WZW string.
