String Vacua with N = 2 Supersymmetry in Four Dimensions
In this article we review four-dimensional string vacua with N = 2 space-time supersymmetry. In particular, we will discuss several aspects of the string-string duality between the heterotic string, compactified on K3 × T 2 , and the type II superstring compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold. We investigate the massless supersymmetric spectra, showing agreement for a large class of dual heterot...
متن کاملOn Spherically Symmetric String Solutions in Four Dimensions
We reconsider here the problem of finding the general 4D spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat and time-independent solutions to the lowest-order string equations in the α expansion. Our construction includes earlier work, but differs from it in three ways. (1) We work with general background metric, dilaton, axion and U(1) gauge fields. (2) Much of the original solutions were required to ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Higher Spin Field Equations in Four Dimensions
The minimal bosonic higher spin gauge theory in four dimensions contains massless particles of spin s = 0, 2, 4, .. that arise in the symmetric product of two spin 0 singletons. It is based on an infinite dimensional extension of the AdS4 algebra a la Vasiliev. We derive an expansion scheme in which the gravitational gauge fields are treated exactly and the gravitational curvatures and the high...
متن کاملEmbedding Higher Level Kac - Moody Algebras in Heterotic String Models
Heterotic string models in which the space-time gauge symmetry is realized as a level k > 2 Kac-Moody algebra on the string world-sheet offer phenomenological features not present for the level k = 1 case (which includes all heterotic string models seriously considered to date). In particular, string models with N=l space-time supersymmetry and/or chiral matter fields can contain massless scala...
متن کاملString-string Duality in Ten Dimensions
The heterotic string occurs as a soliton of the type I superstring in ten dimensions, supporting the conjecture that these two theories are equivalent. The conjecture that the type IIB string is self-dual, with the strong coupling dynamics described by a dual type IIB theory, is supported by the occurrence of the dual string as a Ramond-Ramond soliton of the weakly-coupled theory.
