Fluxes and Branes in Type II Vacua and M-theory Geometry with G(2) and Spin(7) Holonomy
Gottfried Curio, Boris Kors, Dieter Lust
We discuss fluxes of RR and NSNS background fields in type II string compactifications on non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds together with their dual brane description which involve…
G-Fluxes and Non-Perturbative Stabilisation of Heterotic M-Theory
Gottfried Curio, Axel Krause
We examine heterotic M-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau manifold with an additional parallel M5 brane. The dominant non-perturbative effect stems from open membrane instantons c…
Fluxes in Heterotic and Type II String Compactifications
Gottfried Curio, Albrecht Klemm, Boris Kors +1
In this paper we consider heterotic compactifications on K3 x T2 as well as type II compactifications on K3-fibred Calabi-Yau spaces with certain fluxes for the gauge and RR field…
Fibrewise T-Duality for D-Branes on Elliptic Calabi-Yau
Bjorn Andreas, Gottfried Curio, Daniel Hernandez Ruiperez +1
Fibrewise T-duality (Fourier-Mukai transform) for D-branes on an elliptic Calabi-Yau is shown to require naturally an appropriate twisting of the operation respectively a twist…
On the Vacuum Structure of Type II String Compactifications on Calabi-Yau Spaces with H-Fluxes
G. Curio, A. Klemm, D. Luest +1
We discuss the vacuum structure of type IIA/B Calabi-Yau string compactifications to four dimensions in the presence of n-form H-fluxes. These will lift the vacuum degeneracy in th…
