The SO(32) Heterotic String on a K3 Surface
Paul S. Aspinwall, Mark Gross
The SO(32) heterotic string on a K3 surface is analyzed in terms of the dual theory of a type II string (or F-theory) on an elliptically fibred Calabi-Yau manifold. The results are…

Heterotic-Heterotic String Duality and Multiple K3 Fibrations
Paul S. Aspinwall, Mark Gross
A type IIA string compactified on a Calabi-Yau manifold which admits a K3 fibration is believed to be equivalent to a heterotic string in four dimensions. We study cases where a Ca…
