Massive Boson-Fermion Degeneracy and the Early Structure of the Universe
Costas Kounnas
The existence of a new kind of massive boson-fermion symmetry is shown explicitly in the framework of the heterotic, type II and type II orientifold superstring theories. The targe…

Resolution of Hagedorn singularity in superstrings with gravito-magnetic fluxes
C. Angelantonj, C. Kounnas, H. Partouche +1
We consider closed type II and orientifold backgrounds where supersymmetry is spontaneously broken by asymmetric geometrical fluxes. We show that these can be used to describe ther…

Spinor-Vector Duality in Heterotic SUSY Vacua
Tristan Catelin-Jullien, Alon E. Faraggi, Costas Kounnas +1
We elaborate on the recently discovered spinor-vector duality in realistic free fermionic heterotic vacua. We emphasize the interpretation of the freely-acting orbifolds carried ou…
