Asymmetrically twisted strings

چکیده
In this letter a new class of twisted strings is presented, with an asymmetry between the holomorphic and antiholomorphic sectors parametrized by integer $N$. Their physical content given massless resonances closed string plus mass-level $N$ spectrum open string. The appeal model singling out (higher spin) massive levels theory together their self/gauge/gravity interactions. Motivated original tree level Kawai-Lewellen-Tye relation for strings, its asymmetrically version at four points conjectured shown to naturally interpolate conventional strings. resulting four-point amplitudes have generalized Virasoro-Shapiro dressing factor.

(t) Twisted Strings and Orbifolds’
How can these symmetries be broken to SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) in four dimensions? One powerful approach to string symmetry breaking was proposed in a beautiful paper by Candelas, Horowitz, Strominger and Witten [l]. This group advocated compactifying the heterotic string on M4 x K, where M4 is four-dimensional Minkowski space, and K is a compact six-dimensional manifdld of SU(31 holonomv. a so-cal...
متن کاملTwisted Open Strings from Closed Strings: The WZW Orientation Orbifolds
Including world-sheet orientation-reversing automorphisms ĥσ ∈ H− in the orbifold program, we construct the operator algebras and twisted KZ systems of the general WZW orientation orbifold Ag(H−)/H−. We find that the orientation-orbifold sectors corresponding to each ĥσ ∈ H− are twisted open WZW strings, whose properties are quite distinct from conventional open-string orientifold sectors. As s...
متن کاملSymmetries between Untwisted and Twisted Strings on Asymmetric Orbifolds
We study symmetries between untwisted and twisted strings on asymmetric orbifolds. We present a list of asymmetric orbifold models to possess intertwining currents which convert untwisted string states to twisted ones, and vice versa. We also present a list of heterotic strings on asymmetric orbifolds with supersymmetry between untwisted and twisted string states. Some of properties inherent in...
متن کاملF Theory Orientifolds, M Theory Orientifolds, and Twisted Strings
Orientifolds of the type IIB superstring that descend from F theory and M theory orbifolds are studied perturbatively. One finds strong evidence that a previously ignored twisted open string is required in these models. An attempt is made to interpret the J type torsion in F theory where one finds a realization of Gimon and Johnson’s models which does not require these twisted strings. S-dualit...
متن کاملA Basic Class of Twisted Open WZW Strings
Recently, Giusto and Halpern reported the open-string description of a certain basic class of untwisted open WZW strings, including their associated non-commutative geometry and open-string KZ equations. In this paper, we combine this development with results from the theory of current-algebraic orbifolds to find the open-string description of a corresponding basic class of twisted open WZW str...
