This theory has been conjectured to have a holographic dual description in terms of N=2 Landau-Ginzburg theory and Liouville theory. If the Landau-Ginzburg description precisely reflects the information of ADE singularity, the Landau-Ginzburg model of $D_4,E_6,E_8$ and Gepner model of $A_2\\otimes A_2, A_2\\otimes A_3, A_2\\otimes A_4$ should give the same result. We compute the elements of $D_4,E_6,E_8$ modular invariants for the singular Calabi-Yau compactification in terms of the spectral flow invariant orbits of the tensor product theories with the theta function which encodes the momentum mode of the Liouville theory. Furthermore we find the interesting identity among characters in minimal models at different levels. We give the complete proof for the identity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-09-30T13:25:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.25.-w", "11.25.Pm", "11.25.Hf" ], "keywords": [ "singular calabi-yau manifolds", "ade classification", "spectral flow invariant orbits", "ade singularity", "liouville theory" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
