Heterotic compactifications on SU(2)-structure backgrounds
Jan Louis, Danny Martinez-Pedrera, Andrei Micu
In this paper we study the reduction of heterotic string theory on SU(2)-structure backgrounds. We compute the bosonic low-energy gauged N=2 supergravity specified by the Killing v…
A Note on Moduli Stabilisation in Heterotic Models in the Presence of Matter Fields
Andrei Micu
In this brief note we analyse a toy model which can be derived from heterotic string compactifications on half-flat manifolds with SU(3) structure at first order in α' (ie includin…
Non-Abelian structures in compactifications of M-theory on seven-manifolds with SU(3) structure
Ofer Aharony, Micha Berkooz, Jan Louis +1
We study M-theory compactified on a specific class of seven-dimensional manifolds with SU(3) structure. The manifolds can be viewed as a fibration of an arbitrary Calabi-Yau threef…
M-theory on seven-dimensional manifolds with SU(3) structure
Andrei Micu, Eran Palti, P. M. Saffin
In this paper we study M-theory compactifications on seven-dimensional manifolds with SU(3) structure. As such manifolds naturally pick out a specific direction, the resulting effe…
M-theory Compactifications on Manifolds with G2 Structure
Thomas House, Andrei Micu
In this paper we study M-theory compactifications on manifolds of G2 structure. By computing the gravitino mass term in four dimensions we derive the general form for the superpote…
Heterotic compactifications and nearly-Kahler manifolds
Andrei Micu
We propose that under certain conditions heterotic string compactifications on half-flat and nearly-Kahler manifolds are equivalent. Based on this correspondence we argue that the…
