On the Landau-Ginzburg Description of $N=2$ Minimal Models

The conjecture that $N=2$ minimal models in two dimensions are critical points of a super-renormalizable Landau-Ginzburg model can be tested by computing the path integral of the Landau-Ginzburg model with certain twisted boundary conditions. This leads to simple expressions for certain characters of the $N=2$ models which can be verified at least at low levels. An $N=2$ superconformal algebra can in fact be found directly in the {\it noncritical} Landau-Ginzburg system, giving further support for the conjecture.
