Spectra of sigma models on semi-symmetric spaces

Sigma models on semi-symmetric spaces provide the central building block for string theories on AdS backgrounds. Under certain conditions on the global supersymmetry group they can be made one-loop conformal by adding an appropriate fermionic Wess–Zumino term. We determine the full one-loop dilation...
