Explicit covering-space maps for three long twists plus any number of twist-2 operators are constructed, yielding closed-form four- and five-point bare twist correlators in the ΔN=1,2 cases.

abstract
Symmetric orbifold CFTs contain twist operators that can join and split copies of the CFT, leading to the creation of pairs from the vacuum. In this paper, we study the pair creation processes involving four twist-2 operators. In addition to the pair creation previously observed purely in the left or right moving sectors, we find a novel mixing between left and right movers during pair creation. This phenomenon arises from nontrivial monodromy conditions that originate from a genus-one covering surface, where left and right movers become coupled through the torus.

Covering space maps for $n$-point functions with three long twists
Explicit covering-space maps for three long twists plus any number of twist-2 operators are constructed, yielding closed-form four- and five-point bare twist correlators in the ΔN=1,2 cases.
