Cargese lectures on string theory with eight supercharges
arXiv:0704.3295 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2007.06.007
Abstract
These lectures give an introduction to the interrelated topics of Calabi-Yau compactification of the type II string, black hole attractors, the all-orders entropy formula, the dual (0,4) CFT, topological strings and the OSV conjecture. Based on notes by MG of lectures by AS at the 2006 Cargese summer school.
30 pp, 7 figures, based on lecture notes by A. Strominger at the 2006 Cargese summer school
