Axial-Vector Duality as a Mirror SymmetryDOI: 10.1016/0370-2693(94)01463-M Abstract: We study $N=2$ supersymmetric $SU(2)/U(1)$ and $SL(2,R)/U(1)$ gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. It is shown that the vector gauged model is transformed to the axial gauged model by a mirror transformation. Therefore the vector gauged model and the axial gauged model are equivalent as $N=(2,2)$ superconformal field theories. In the $SL(2,R)/U(1)$ model, it is known that axial-vector duality relates a background with a singularity to that without a singularity. Implications of the equivalence of these two models to space-time singularities are discussed.
