Stringy Gauge Structures
Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés, Lucía M. Cabrera +1
A field theory action, able to incorporate stringy gauge symmetry enhancement-breaking effects, which occur at particular points of moduli space in a heterotic string toroidal comp…
Asymmetric Orbifolds, Rank Reduction and Heterotic Islands
Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés, Anamaría Font +2
We consider toroidal asymmetric orbifolds of the heterotic string preserving all 16 supercharges, developing a general formalism to study components of the moduli space characteriz…
Symmetry enhancement interpolation, non-commutativity and Double Field Theory
G. Aldazabal, E. Andrés, M. Mayo +1
We present a moduli dependent target space effective field theory action for (truncated) heterotic string toroidal compactifications. When moving continuously along moduli space, t…
Double Field Theory description of Heterotic gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking
Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andres, Martin Mayo +1
A Double Field Theory (DFT) description of gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking in the heterotic string is presented. The construction, based on previous results for the bosonic strin…
Gauge symmetry enhancing-breaking from a Double Field Theory perspective
G. Aldazabal, E. Andres, Martin Mayo +1
Gauge symmetry enhancing, at specific points of the compactification space, is a distinguished feature of string theory. In this work we discuss the breaking of such symmetries wit…
U-dual fluxes and Generalized Geometry
G. Aldazabal, E. Andres, P. G. Camara +1
We perform a systematic analysis of generic string flux compactifications, making use of Exceptional Generalized Geometry (EGG) as an organizing principle. In particular, we establ…
