Compactifications of Heterotic Strings on Non-Kahler Complex Manifolds: II
Katrin Becker, Melanie Becker, Keshav Dasgupta +2
We continue our study of heterotic compactifications on non-Kahler complex manifolds with torsion. We give further evidence of the consistency of the six-dimensional manifold prese…
PP-Waves, M-Theory and Fluxes
Katrin Becker, Melanie Becker, Ram Sriharsha
We study a new type of warped compactifications of M-theory on eight manifolds for which nowhere vanishing covariantly constant spinors of indefinite chirality on the internal mani…
Properties Of Heterotic Vacua From Superpotentials
Katrin Becker, Melanie Becker, Keshav Dasgupta +1
We study the superpotential for the heterotic string compactified on non-Kahler complex manifolds. We show that many of the geometrical properties of these manifolds can be underst…
Compactifications of Heterotic Theory on Non-Kahler Complex Manifolds: I
Katrin Becker, Melanie Becker, Keshav Dasgupta +1
We study new compactifications of the SO(32) heterotic string theory on compact complex non-Kahler manifolds. These manifolds have many interesting features like fewer moduli, tors…
