# Orbifold deconstruction: a computational approach

## TL;DR

This paper introduces a computational method to determine if a conformal model is an orbifold of another, identifying the twist group and original model, demonstrated through the Ashkin-Teller model.

## Contribution

It provides a general deconstruction procedure for recognizing orbifold structures in conformal models, including identifying the twist group and original model.

## Key findings

- Successfully applied to the Ashkin-Teller model
- Provides a systematic way to recognize orbifold origins
- Enhances understanding of conformal model structures

## Abstract

We present a general deconstruction procedure aimed at recognizing whether a given conformal model may be obtained as an orbifold of another one, and to identify the twist group and the original model in terms of some readily available characteristics. The ideas involved are illustrated on the maximal deconstruction of the Ashkin-Teller model $\mathtt{AT}_{16}$.
