Constructing self-dual chiral polytopes
An abstract polytope is chiral if its automorphism group has two orbits on the flags, such that adjacent flags belong to distinct orbits. There are still few examples of chiral polytopes, and few constructions that can create chiral polytopes with specified properties. In this paper, we show how to build self-dual chiral polytopes using the mixing construction for polytopes.
متن کاملCovariant Field Theory for Self-dual Strings
We give a gauge and manifestly SO(2,2) covariant formulation of the field theory of the self-dual string. The string fields are gauge connections that turn the super-Virasoro generators into covariant derivatives. 1 Internet address: [email protected]. 2 Internet address: [email protected].
متن کاملSelf-Dual Supergravity from N = 2 Strings
A new heterotic N = 2 string with manifest target space supersymmetry is constructed by combining a conventional N = 2 string in the right-moving sector and a Green-SchwarzBerkovits type string in the left-moving sector. The corresponding sigma model is then obtained by turning on background fields for the massless excitations. We compute the beta functions and we partially check the OPE’s of t...
متن کاملWarped Strings: Self-dual Flux and Contemporary Compactifications
String theory is a leading candidate for the quantum theory of gravitation and is the only serious unified theory of all the forces of physics. Additionally, string theory seems to be mathematically unique, and it is possible that all the parameters of physics could be determined by the dynamics of string theory. However, there are two intertwined problems. First is that string theory requires ...
متن کاملM - brane action from self - dual ( 2 , 2 ) strings 1
Taking the (2,2) strings as a starting point, we discuss the equivalent integrable field theories and analyze their symmetry structure in 2+2 dimensions from the viewpoint of string/membrane unification. Requiring the ‘Lorentz’ invariance and supersymmetry in the (2,2) string target space leads to an extension of the (2,2) string theory to a theory of 2 + 2 dimensional supermembranes (M-branes)...
