چکیده
A compactification of the heterotic string is considered which describes a particle propa-excited states whose dynamics is 1 + 1 dimensional. The model appears to describe D-particle dynamics in type IIA string theory on M.

A note on heterotic/type I′ duality and D0 brane quantum mechanics
In the note a simple calculation of one loop threshold corrections for the SO(32) heterotic string is performed. In particular the compactification on T 2 with a Wilson line breaking the gauge group to SO(16)×SO(16) is considered. Using heterotic type I duality, these corrections can be related to quantities appearing in the quantum mechanics of type I ′ D0 particles. February 1999 1 email: gut...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Quantum Black Holes in Five Dimensional Heterotic String Vacua
Exact black hole solutions of the five dimensional heterotic S-T -U model including all perturbative quantum corrections and preserving 1/2 of N = 2 supersymmetry are studied. It is shown that the quantum corrections yield a bound on electric charges and harmonic functions of the solutions.
متن کاملTorsional Heterotic Geometries
We construct new examples of torsional heterotic backgrounds using duality with orientifold flux compactifications. We explain how duality provides a perturbative solution to the type I/heterotic string Bianchi identity. The choice of connection used in the Bianchi identity plays an important role in the construction. We propose the existence of a much larger landscape of compact torsional geom...
متن کاملRecent developments in heterotic compactifications
In this short review, we outline three sets of developments in understanding heterotic string compactifications. First, we outline recent progress in heterotic analogues of quantum cohomology computations. Second, we discuss a potential swampland issue in heterotic strings, and new heterotic string constructions that can be used to fill in the naively missing theories. Third, we discuss recent ...
متن کاملQuantum Black Holes in Heterotic String Vacua
N = 2 supersymmetric quantum black holes in the heterotic S-T -U model are presented. In particular three classes of axion-free quantum black holes with half the N = 2, D = 4 supersymmetries unbroken are considered. First, these quantum black holes are investigated at generic points in moduli space. Then “linearized” non-abelian black holes are considered, which can occur at critical points of ...
