Dai-Freed anomalies and level matching in heterotic asymmetric orbifolds
Peng Cheng, Hector Parra De Freitas
We study asymmetric orbifolds of the heterotic string from the perspective of worldsheet Dai-Freed anomalies. Focusing on cyclic symmetries that…

A Duality Web for Non-Supersymmetric Strings
Zihni Kaan Baykara, Matilda Delgado, Emilian Dudas +2
Motivated by the recently proposed geometric descriptions of 0A and 0B in M-theory and F-theory, we propose a web of duality among non-supersymmetric strings. In particular we argu…

Symmetries and dualities in non-supersymmetric CHL strings
Bernardo Fraiman, Héctor Parra de Freitas
We chart the classical moduli space of heterotic strings with broken supersymmetry a la Scherk-Schwarz and gauge group rank reduced by 8 in eight dimensions. This space consists of…
