Field Theory Questions for String Theory Answers

O. Aharony, C. Sonnenschein, S. Yankielowicz +1

We discuss the field theory of 3-brane probes in F-theory compactifications in two configurations, generalizing the work of Sen and of Banks, Douglas and Seiberg. One configuration…

Non-Perturbative Properties of Heterotic String Vacua Compactified on

J. Louis, J. Sonnenschein, S. Theisen +1

Using the heterotic--type II duality of string vacua in four space-time dimensions we study non-perturbative couplings of toroidally compactified six-dimensional heterotic va…

Higher-Derivative Gravity in String Theory

Kristin Forger, Burt A. Ovrut, Stefan J. Theisen +1

We explicitly extract the structure of higher-derivative curvature-squared terms at genus 0 and 1 in the d=4 heterotic string effective action compactified on symmetric orbifolds b…

Isomonodromic Quantization of Dimensionally Reduced Gravity

D. Korotkin, H. Nicolai

We present a detailed account of the isomonodromic quantization of dimensionally reduced Einstein gravity with two commuting Killing vectors. This theory constitutes an integrable…

Quantum Field Theory of Geometry

Abhay Ashtekar, Jerzy Lewandowski

Over the past five years, there has been significant progress on the problem of quantization of diffeomorphism covariant field theories with {\it local} degrees of freedom. The abs…

The Analysis of Time-Space Translations in Quantum Fields

Heinrich Saller

I discuss the indefinite metrical structure of the time-space translations as realized in the indefinite inner products for relativistic quantum fields, familiar in the example of…
