Horizontal and Vertical Five-Branes in Heterotic/F-Theory Duality

Bjorn Andreas, Gottfried Curio

We consider the heterotic string on an elliptic Calabi-Yau three-fold with five-branes wrapping curves in the base ('horizontal' curves) of the Calabi-Yau as well as some elliptic…

Chiral Fermions and AdS/CFT Duality for a Nonabelian Orbifold

Paul H. Frampton, T. W. Kephart

We present what we believe is the minimal three-family model compactified on a nonabelian orbifold . Nontrivial irreps of the discrete nonabelian g…

A small but nonzero cosmological constant

Y. Jack Ng, H. van Dam

Recent astrophysical observations seem to indicate that the cosmological constant is small but nonzero and positive. The old cosmological constant problem asks why it is so small;…

Vertex Operators for AdS3 Background With Ramond Ramond Flux

Louise Dolan, Edward Witten

In order to study vertex operators for the Type IIB superstring on AdS space, we derive supersymmetric constraint equations for the vertex operators in AdS3xS3 backgrounds with Ram…

Conformality from Field-String Duality on Abelian Orbifolds

Paul H. Frampton

If the standard model is embedded in a conformal theory, what is the simplest possibility? We analyse all abelian orbifolds for discrete symmetry with , and find th…

Conformality and Gauge Coupling Unification

Paul H. Frampton

It has been recently proposed to embed the standard model in a conformal gauge theory to resolve the hierarchy problem, and to avoid assuming either grand unification or low-energy…

Mersenne Primes, Polygonal Anomalies and String Theory Classification

Paul H. Frampton, Thomas W. Kephart

It is pointed out that the Mersenne primes and associated perfect numbers play a significant role in string theory; this observation may sugge…

Conformal N=0 d=4 Gauge Theories from AdS/CFT Superstring Duality?

Paul H. Frampton, William F. Shively

Non-supersymmetric d=4 gauge theories which arise from superstring duality on a manifold are cataloged for a range . A number have vanishin…

Towards the Standard Model spectrum from elliptic Calabi-Yau

Bjorn Andreas, Gottfried Curio, Albrecht Klemm

We show that it is possible to construct supersymmetric three-generation models of Standard Model gauge group in the framework of non-simply-connected elliptically fibered Calabi-Y…

Symmetric Subgroups of Gauged Supergravities and AdS String Theory Vertex Operators

L. Dolan, M. Langham

We show how the gauge symmetry representations of the massless particle content of gauged supergravities that arise in the AdS/CFT correspondences can be derived from symmetric sub…
