Tachyons and Misaligned Supersymmetry in Orientifold Vacua
Giorgio Leone
We extend the analysis of Misaligned Supersymmetry to orientifold vacua. The lack of modular invariance in the Klein bottle, annulus and Möbius strip amplitudes implies that the IR…

Anomaly constraints for heterotic strings and supergravity in six dimensions
Ivano Basile, Giorgio Leone
The landscape of six-dimensional supergravities is dramatically constrained by the cancellation of gauge and gravitational anomalies, but the full extent of its implications has no…

Tachyons and Misaligned Supersymmetry in Closed String Vacua
Carlo Angelantonj, Ioannis Florakis, Giorgio Leone
In a remarkable paper, Dienes discovered that the absence of physical tachyons in closed string theory is intimately related to oscillations in the net number of bosonic minus ferm…
