Strings as Solitons & Black Holes as Strings
A. Dabholkar, J. P. Gauntlett, J. A. Harvey +1
Supersymmetric closed string theories contain an infinite tower of BPS-saturated, oscillating, macroscopic strings in the perturbative spectrum. When these theories have dual formu…
Algebras, BPS States, and Strings
J. A. Harvey, G. Moore
We clarify the role played by BPS states in the calculation of threshold corrections of D=4, N=2 heterotic string compactifications. We evaluate these corrections for some classes…
S-Duality and the Dyon Spectrum in N=2 Super Yang-Mills Theory
J. P. Gauntlett, J. A. Harvey
We study the dyon spectrum in Super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group coupled to matter multiplets in the fundamental representation. For magnetic charge one a…
N=1 String Duality
J. A. Harvey, D. A. Lowe, A. Strominger
We discuss duality between Type IIA string theory, eleven-dimensional supergravity, and heterotic string theory in four spacetime dimensions with supersymmetry. We find theor…
Second-Quantized Mirror Symmetry
S. Ferrara, J. A. Harvey, A. Strominger +1
We propose and give strong evidence for a duality relating Type II theories on Calabi-Yau spaces and heterotic strings on , both of which have spacetime supers…
The Heterotic String is a Soliton
J. A. Harvey, A. Strominger
It is shown that the Type IIA superstring compactified on has a smooth string soliton with the same zero mode structure as the heterotic string compactified on a four torus, t…
