Properties of String Theory on Kaluza-Klein Melvin Background
arXiv:hep-th/0110077 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2002/07/015
Abstract
We investigate some properties of string theory on Kaluza-Klein Melvin background. We discuss what happens when closed string tachyons in the theory condense, by using a linear sigma model of the Kaluza-Klein Melvin background.
