Anomalies and discrete torsion in Type II and Type I worldsheet theories
Masashi Kawahira, Shotaro Kawanago, Shota Saito +1
We provide a comprehensive study of anomalies and discrete torsion in the worldsheet theories of Type II and Type I string theories on a general ten-dimensional target space. In th…
7-branes and Duality in Type 0B String Theory
Naoto Kan, Masashi Kawahira, Hiroki Wada
We investigate 7-branes in type 0B string theory, motivated by the recent proposal of Baykara, Dudas, and Vafa, which connects type 0B string theory with M-theory. On the -symme…
Emergent higher-form symmetry from type IIB superstring theory
Naoto Kan, Masashi Kawahira, Hiroki Wada
We investigate a higher-form symmetry in type IIB superstring theory, which possesses an symmetry. From the point of view of the low-energy effective field…
Anomalies and D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park background
Hiroki Wada, Satoshi Yamaguchi
We consider D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park (DP) background, a d orientifold theory obtained by gauging symmetry in the type IIB string theory compactified on a circle. Using ano…
