Eisenstein Series and String Thresholds ⋆
We investigate the relevance of Eisenstein series for representing certain G(Z)-invariant string theory amplitudes which receive corrections from BPS states only. G(Z) may stand for any of the mapping class, T-duality and U-duality groups Sl(d, Z), SO(d, d, Z) or E d+1(d+1) (Z) respectively. Using G(Z)-invariant mass formulae, we construct invariant modular functions on the symmetric space K\G(...
متن کاملEisenstein Series in String Theory
We discuss the relevance of Eisenstein series for representing certain G(Z)-invariant string theory amplitudes which receive corrections from BPS states only. The Eisenstein series are constructed using G(Z)-invariant mass formulae and are manifestly invariant modular functions on the symmetric space K\G(R) of noncompact type, with K the maximal compact subgroup of G(R). In particular, we show ...
متن کاملOn Fourier Coefficients of Eisenstein Series
In this paper we wish to prove that under certain conditions the Fourier coefficients of the Eisenstein series for an arithmetic group acting on a tube domain are all rational numbers. Let G be a connected, simply-connected, semisimple, and almost Q-simple linear algebraic group defined over the rational number field Q. Let R be the real number field. Then GR is connected, and we assume that if...
متن کاملSmall Instantons in String Theory
A long-standing puzzle about the heterotic string has been what happens when an instanton shrinks to zero size. It is argued here that the answer at the quantum level is that an extra SU(2) gauge symmetry appears that is supported in the core of the instanton. Thus in particular the quantum heterotic string has vacua with higher rank than is possible in conformal field theory. When k instantons...
متن کاملSmall Instantons and Weak Scale String Theory
We consider heterotic string compactifications to four dimensions when instantons shrink to zero size. If the standard model gauge group originates from the new gauge symmetry associated with the small instantons singularity, then the weakly or strongly coupled heterotic string scales can be taken to be arbitrarily low. The SO(32) and E8×E8 gauge groups can then be very weakly coupled even at t...
