We show that one can construct D-branes in parafermionic and WZW theories (and their orbifolds) which have very natural geometrical interpretations, and yet are not automatically included in the standard Cardy construction of D-branes in rational conformal field theory. The relation between these theories and their T-dual description leads to an analogy between these D-branes and the familiar A-branes and B-branes of N=2 theories.

  1. Higher Structures on Boundary Conformal Manifolds: Higher Berry Phase and Boundary Conformal Field Theory

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A 2-form higher Berry connection on boundary conformal manifolds is defined from boundary-condition-changing operator OPE phases; it reproduces the B-field and WZ term in string theory examples.

  2. Defects and Phases of Higher Rank Abelian GLSMs

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A cutoff-truncation of the identity defect yields lift and transition defects for higher-rank abelian GLSMs, matching band restriction rules and minimal model flow defects.

  3. All the D-Branes of Resurgence

    hep-th 2023-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Negative-tension ZZ-branes are required by resurgence to build complete transseries for minimal-string free energies, with analytic Stokes data and extensions to JT gravity and other string models.
