Gravity's Rainbow: Limits for the applicability of the equivalence principle

Rene Lafrance, Robert C. Myers

Limits for the applicability of the equivalence principle are considered in the context of low-energy effective field theories. In particular, we find a class of higher-derivative…

On Spherically Symmetric String Solutions in Four Dimensions

C. P. Burgess, R. C. Myers, F. Quevedo

We reconsider here the problem of finding the general 4D spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat and time-independent solutions to the lowest-order string equations in the $\ap$…

Duality and Four-Dimensional Black Holes

C. P. Burgess, R. C. Myers, F. Quevedo

We consider the effects of abelian duality transformations on static, spherically-symmetric, asymptotically flat string spacetimes in four dimensions, where the dilaton, axion, met…

String Organization of Field Theories: Duality and Gauge Invariance

Y. J. Feng, C. S. Lam

String theories should reduce to ordinary four-dimensional field theories at low energies. Yet the formulation of the two are so different that such a connection, if it exists, is…

Bosonization in Higher Dimensions

C. P. Burgess, C. A. Lütken, F. Quevedo

Using the recently discovered connection between bosonization and duality transformations (hep-th/9401105 and hep-th/9403173), we give an explicit path-integral representation for…

Taub--NUT Dyons in Heterotic String Theory

Clifford V. Johnson, Robert C. Myers

Starting with the Taub--NUT solution to Einstein's equations, together with a constant dilaton, a dyonic Taub--NUT solution of low energy heterotic string theory with non--trivial…
