Heterotic Strings on , Nikulin involutions and M-theory
Bobby Samir Acharya, Gerardo Aldazabal, Anamaría Font +2
We first describe the low energy dynamics of ten dimensional heterotic supergravity compactified on the smooth, flat 3-manifold , without supersymmetry…
Gauging Discrete Symmetries of -theories in Five Dimensions
Bobby Acharya, Neil Lambert, Marwan Najjar +2
We study the gauging of a discrete symmetry in the five-dimensional superconformal theories. We argue that this leads to an infinite sequence of five-dimension…
Non-Perturbative Heterotic Duals of M-Theory on Orbifolds
Bobby Samir Acharya, Alex Kinsella, David R. Morrison
By fibering the duality between the heterotic string on and M-theory on K3, we study heterotic duals of M-theory compactified on orbifolds of th…
New -conifolds in -theory and their Field Theory Interpretation
Bobby Samir Acharya, Lorenzo Foscolo, Marwan Najjar +1
A recent theorem of Foscolo-Haskins-Nordström which constructs complete -holonomy orbifolds from circle bundles over Calabi-Yau cones can be utilised to construct and investig…
-Invariant Heterotic Hull-Strominger Solutions
Bobby Samir Acharya, Alex Kinsella, Eirik Eik Svanes
We consider the heterotic string on Calabi-Yau manifolds admitting a Strominger-Yau-Zaslow fibration. Upon reducing the system in the -directions, the Hermitian Yang-Mills con…
Stringy Tachyonic Instabilities of Non-Supersymmetric Ricci Flat Backgrounds
Bobby Samir Acharya, Gerardo Aldazabal, Eduardo Andrés +3
Superstring/M-theory compactified on compact Ricci flat manifolds have recently been conjectured to exhibit instabilities whenever the metrics do not have special holonomy. We use…
