Asymmetric Orbifolds, Rank Reduction and Heterotic Islands
Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés, Anamaría Font +2
We consider toroidal asymmetric orbifolds of the heterotic string preserving all 16 supercharges, developing a general formalism to study components of the moduli space characteriz…
Discontinuities of free theories on
Justin R. David, Edi Gava, Rajesh Kumar Gupta +1
The partition functions of free bosons as well as fermions on are not smooth as a function of their masses. For free bosons, the partition function on is not smooth…
Heterotic Strings on , Nikulin involutions and M-theory
Bobby Samir Acharya, Gerardo Aldazabal, Anamaría Font +2
We first describe the low energy dynamics of ten dimensional heterotic supergravity compactified on the smooth, flat 3-manifold , without supersymmetry…
Stringy Tachyonic Instabilities of Non-Supersymmetric Ricci Flat Backgrounds
Bobby Samir Acharya, Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés +3
Superstring/M-theory compactified on compact Ricci flat manifolds have recently been conjectured to exhibit instabilities whenever the metrics do not have special holonomy. We use…
Boundary conditions and localization on AdS: Part 2 General analysis
Justin R. David, Edi Gava, Rajesh Kumar Gupta +1
We develop the method of Green's function to evaluate the one loop determinants that arise in localization of supersymmetric field theories on spaces. The theories we study h…
Chern-Simons Theory on a General Seifert 3-Manifold
Matthias Blau, Keita Kaniba Mady, K. S. Narain +1
The path integral for the partition function of Chern-Simons gauge theory with a compact gauge group is evaluated on a general Seifert 3-manifold. This extends previous results and…
