May use for both 4d phenomenological theories of flavor chiral anomalies, and 2d CFTs involving affine Lie Algebras. Wess–Zumino–Witten (WZW) models describe σ-models with flavor-chiral anomalies, of topological significance. Such terms trivialize the torsional curvature of the respective manifolds, leading to infrared fixed points of the RG.

Relation between WZW model and gauge transformation

I came across this question while reading Chapter 15 of Conformal Field Theory by Di Francesco. So the action of the Weiss-Zumino-Witten(WZW) model is as follows: $$S = \frac{1}{4a^2}\int d^2x {\rm Tr …
