Codimension-Three Bundle Singularities in F-Theory
Philip Candelas, Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea +2
We study new nonperturbative phenomena in N=1 heterotic string vacua corresponding to pointlike bundle singularities in codimension three. These degenerations result in new four-di…
Geometric Aspects of Mirror Symmetry
David R. Morrison
The geometric aspects of mirror symmetry are reviewed, with an eye towards future developments. Given a mirror pair (X,Y) of Calabi-Yau threefolds, the best-understood mirror state…
Group representations and the Euler characteristic of elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds
Antonella Grassi, David R. Morrison
To every elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold with a section there can be associated a Lie group and a representation of that group. The group is determined from the Weierstra…
Lie Groups, Calabi-Yau Threefolds, and F-Theory
Paul S. Aspinwall, Sheldon Katz, David R. Morrison
The F-theory vacuum constructed from an elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold with section yields an effective six-dimensional theory. The Lie algebra of the gauge sector of this theory an…
