M(atrix) String Theory on K3
We conjecture that M-theory compactiied on an ALE space (or K3) is described by 0-branes moving on the ALE space. We give evidence for this by showing that if we compactify another circle, we recover string theory on the ALE space. This guarantees that in the large N limit, the matrix model correctly describes the force law between gravitons moving in an ALE background. We also show the appeara...
متن کاملAn Orbifold and an Orientifold of Type IIB Theory on K3 × K3
We consider the compactification of type IIB superstring theory on K3 × K3. We obtain the massless spectrum of the resulting two dimensional theory and show that the model is free of gravitational anomaly. We then consider an orbifold and an orientifold projection of the above model and find that their spectrum match identically and are anomaly-free as well. This gives a dual pair of type IIB t...
متن کاملOn Elliptic K3 Surfaces
We make a complete list of all possible ADE-types of singular fibers of complex elliptic K3 surfaces and the torsion parts of their MordellWeil groups.
متن کاملOn K3 Correspondences
We consider relationships between families of K3 surfaces, in the context of string theory. An important ingredient of string theory also of interest in algebraic geometry is T-duality. Donagi and Pantev [DP] have extended the original duality on genus one fibred K3 surfaces with a section to the case of any genus one fibration, via a Fourier-Mukai transform. We investigate possibilities of ext...
متن کاملOn Normal K3 Surfaces
We determine all possible configurations of rational double points on complex normal algebraic K3 surfaces, and on normal supersingular K3 surfaces in characteristic p > 19.
