Non-Perturbative Heterotic Duals of M-Theory on Orbifolds
Bobby Samir Acharya, Alex Kinsella, David R. Morrison
By fibering the duality between the heterotic string on and M-theory on K3, we study heterotic duals of M-theory compactified on orbifolds of th…

-Invariant Heterotic Hull-Strominger Solutions
Bobby Samir Acharya, Alex Kinsella, Eirik Eik Svanes
We consider the heterotic string on Calabi-Yau manifolds admitting a Strominger-Yau-Zaslow fibration. Upon reducing the system in the -directions, the Hermitian Yang-Mills con…

Gauge-invariant observables, gravitational dressings, and holography in AdS
Steven B. Giddings, Alex Kinsella
This paper explores construction of gauge (diffeomorphism)-invariant observables in anti de Sitter (AdS) space and the related question of how to find a "holographic map" providing…
