Triples, Fluxes, and Strings
Jan de Boer, Robbert Dijkgraaf, Kentaro Hori +4
We study string compactifications with sixteen supersymmetries. The moduli space for these compactifications becomes quite intricate in lower dimensions, partly because there are m…

Summing Up Instantons in Three-Dimensional Yang-Mills Theories
Sonia Paban, Savdeep Sethi, Mark Stern
We show that the four derivative terms in the effective action of three-dimensional N=8 Yang-Mills theory are determined by supersymmetry. These terms receive both perturbative and…

Comments on Neveu-Schwarz Five-Branes
Nathan Seiberg, Savdeep Sethi
We study the theory of NS five-branes in string theory with a smooth non-trivial transverse space. We show that in the limit that the bulk physics decouples, these theories become…
