The Neveu-Schwarz Five-Brane and its Dual Geometries
B. Andreas, G. Curio, D. Lust
In this paper we discuss two aspects of duality transformations on the Neveu-Schwarz (NS) 5-brane solutions in type II and heterotic string theories. First we demonstrate that the…
Chiral matter and transitions in heterotic string models
G. Curio
In the framework of N=1 supersymmetric string models given by the heterotic string on an elliptic Calabi-Yau $π:Z\ra B$ together with a SU(n) bundle we compute the chiral matter co…
New N=1 Supersymmetric 3-dimensional Superstring Vacua from U-manifolds
G. Curio, D. Lust
Making use of non-perturbative U-duality symmetries of type II strings we construct new `superstring' vacua in three dimensions with N=1 supersymmetry. This has an interpretation a…
Moduli in N=1 heterotic/F-theory duality
Gottfried Curio, Ron Y. Donagi
The moduli in a 4D N=1 heterotic compactification on an elliptic CY, as well as in the dual F-theoretic compactification, break into "base" parameters which are even (under the nat…
