TL;DR

This paper investigates the renormalization group flows in N=1 superconformal minimal models using topological defect symmetries, employing coset descriptions and extending to superconformal models.

Contribution

It introduces a method to analyze RG flows in superconformal models via topological defects and extends coset techniques to superconformal cases.

Findings

Identifies possible RG flows constrained by topological defect symmetries.

Extends coset description from bosonic to superconformal models.

Provides a framework for understanding RG flows in N=1 superconformal minimal models.

Abstract

Utilising the symmetry constraints of suitable topological defects, the possible RG flows of N=1 superconformal minimal models are studied. We first employ a coset description that only captures the bosonic subalgebra, and then generalise the discussion to the actual superconformal models.
