Heterotic Twistor-String Theory
We reformulate twistor-string theory as a heterotic string based on a twisted (0,2) model. The path integral localizes on holomorphic maps, while the (0,2) moduli naturally correspond to the states of N = 4 super Yang-Mills and conformal supergravity under the Penrose transform. We show how the standard twistor-string formulae of scattering amplitudes as integrals over the space of curves in su...
متن کاملHeterotic Matrix String Theory
M-theory suggests the largeN limit of the matrix description of a collection of N Type IA D-particles should provide a nonperturbative formulation of heterotic string theory. In this paper states in the matrix theory corresponding to fundamental heterotic strings are identified, and their interactions are studied. Comments are made about analogous states in Type IIA string theory, which corresp...
متن کاملOn F-Theory/Heterotic Duality
The heterotic string compacti ed on a Calabi{Yau three-fold X3 has been the phenomenologically most promising candidate amongst perturbatively de ned string theories for quite some time [1]. In particular, compacti cations with (0; 2) supersymmetry can easily lead to realistic gauge groups [2]. The de nition of the theory involves the understanding of a suitable stable vector bundle V on X3, wh...
متن کاملLectures on Heterotic M-Theory
We present three lectures on heterotic M -theory and a fourth lecture extending this theory to more general orbifolds. In Lecture 1, Hořava-Witten theory is briefly discussed. We then compactify this theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds, choosing the “standard” embedding of the spin connection in the gauge connection. We derive, in detail, both the five-dimensional effective action and the associate...
متن کاملSymmetries of Heterotic String Theory
We study the symmetries of the two dimensional Heterotic string theory by following the approach of Kinnersley et al for the study of stationary axially-symmetric Einstein-Maxwell equations. We identify the finite dimensional symmetries which are the analogues of the groups G and H ′ for the Einstein-Maxwell equations. We also give the constructions for the infinite number of conserved currents...
