M/F theory orbifolds
We consider M-theory on (T ×R)/Zn with M5 branes wrapped on R2. One can probe this background with M5 branes wrapped on T2. The theories on the probes provide many new examples of N = 2 field theories without Lagrangian description. All these theories have Coulomb branches, and we find the corresponding SeibergWitten curves. The exact solution is encoded in a Hitchin system on an orbifolded tor...
متن کاملToward the M(F )–Theory Embedding of Realistic Free-Fermion Models
We construct a Landau–Ginzburg model with the same data and symmetries as a Z2 × Z2 orbifold that corresponds to a class of realistic free-fermion models. Within the class of interest, we show that this orbifolding connects between different Z2 ×Z2 orbifold models and commutes with the mirror symmetry. Our work suggests that duality symmetries previously discussed in the context of specific M a...
متن کاملCompactifications of F-Theory on Calabi–Yau Threefolds – II
We continue our study of compactifications of F-theory on Calabi–Yau threefolds. We gain more insight into F-theory duals of heterotic strings and provide a recipe for building F-theory duals for arbitrary heterotic compactifications on elliptically fibered manifolds. As a byproduct we find that string/string duality in six dimensions gets mapped to fiber/base exchange in F-theory. We also cons...
متن کاملCompactifications of F-Theory on Calabi–Yau Threefolds – I
We study compactifications of F-theory on certain Calabi–Yau threefolds. We find that N = 2 dualities of type II/heterotic strings in 4 dimensions get promoted to N = 1 dualities between heterotic string and F-theory in 6 dimensions. The six dimensional heterotic/heterotic duality becomes a classical geometric symmetry of the Calabi–Yau in the F-theory setup. Moreover the F-theory compactificat...
متن کاملWarped Compactifications in M and F Theory
We study M and F theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau four-folds in the presence of nontrivial background flux. The geometry is warped and belongs to the class of p-brane metrics. We solve for the explicit warp factor in the orbifold limit of these compactifications, compare our results to some of the more familiar recently studied warped scenarios, and discuss the effects on the low-energy t...
