We discuss some of the details involved in asymmetric orbifold construction. In particular, the path-integral formalism is developed and shown to be consistent with operator interpretation. Conditions of one-loop modular invariance are discussed in detail. We also describe how one can construct correlation functions involving twisted states.Terms of Use
