Counting Dyons in N = 4 String Theory
We present a microscopic index formula for the degeneracy of dyons in four-dimensional N = 4 string theory. This counting formula is manifestly symmetric under the duality group, and its asymptotic growth reproduces the macroscopic Bekenstein-Hawking en-tropy. We give a derivation of this result in terms of the type II ve-brane compactiied on K3, by assuming that its uctuations are described by...
متن کاملCounting all dyons in N = 4 string theory
For dyons in heterotic string theory compactified on a six-torus, with electric charge vector Q and magnetic charge vector P , the positive integer I ≡ gcd(Q ∧ P ) is an invariant of the U-duality group. We propose the microscopic theory for computing the spectrum of all dyons for all values of I, generalizing earlier results that exist only for the simplest case of I = 1. Our derivation uses a...
متن کاملRecounting Dyons in N = 4 String Theory
A recently discovered relation between 4D and 5D black holes is used to derive weighted BPS black hole degeneracies for 4D N = 4 string theory from the well-known 5D degeneracies. They are found to be given by the Fourier coefficients of the unique weight 10 automorphic form of the modular group Sp(2, Z). This result agrees exactly with a conjecture made some years ago by Dijkgraaf, Verlinde an...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein Dyons in String Theory
S-duality of hetertotic / type II string theory compactified on a six dimensional torus requires the existence of Kaluza-Klein dyons, carrying winding charge. We identify the zero modes of the Kaluza-Klein monopole solution which are responsible for these dyonic excitations, and show that we get the correct degeneracy of dyons as predicted by Sduality. The self-dual harmonic two form on the Euc...
متن کاملTaub-NUT dyons in heterotic string theory.
Starting with the Taub–NUT solution to Einstein’s equations, together with a constant dilaton, a dyonic Taub–NUT solution of low energy heterotic string theory with non–trivial dilaton, axion and U(1) gauge fields is constructed by employing O(1, 1) transformations. The electromagnetic dual of this solution is constructed, using SL(2, IR) transformations. By an appropriate change to scaled vari...
