Non-Supersymmetric String Theory
A class of non-supersymmetric string backgrounds can be constructed using twists that involve space-time fermion parity. We propose a non-perturbative definition of string theory in these backgrounds via gauge theories with supersymmetry softly broken by twisted boundary conditions. The perturbative string spectrum is reproduced, and qualitative effects of the interactions are discussed. Along ...
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Gödel Universes in String Theory
Supersymmetric backgrounds in string and M-theory of the Gödel Universe type are studied. We find several new Gödel Universes that preserve up to 20 supersymmetries. In particular, we obtain an interesting Gödel Universe in M-theory with 18 supersymmetries which does not seem to be dual to a pp-wave. We show that not only T-duality but also the typeIIA/M-theory S-duality can give supersymmetric...
متن کاملCosmic String in the Supersymmetric CSKR Theory
We study a cosmic string solution of an N=1-supersymmetric version of the Cremmer-Scherk-Kalb-Ramond (CSKR) Lagrangian coupled to a vector superfield by means of a topological mass term. The 2-form gauge potential is proposed to couple non-minimally to matter, here described by a chiral scalar superfield. The important outcome is that supersymmetry is kept exact both in the core and in the exte...
متن کاملOn String Tensions in Supersymmetric Gauge Theory
In some models of N = 1 supersymmetric SU(M) gauge dynamics (hepth/9503163 and hep-th/9707244), the tension of a string ending on q external quarks is proportional to sin(πq/M), q = 1, . . . ,M − 1. In this paper we calculate the ratios of the q-string tensions using the recently derived type IIB gravity duals of N = 1 SUSY gauge theories. Far in the IR these gravity duals contain an S with M u...
