On S DUALITY OF TOROIDALLY COMPACTIFIED TYPE IIB STRING EFFECTIVE ACTION

Shibaji Roy
Mathematics
1998

It has been shown recently that the toroidally compactified type IIB string effective action possesses an SL(2, R) invariance as a consequence of the corresponding symmetry in ten dimensions when the…

These lectures begin by reviewing the evidence for S duality of the toroidally compactified heterotic string in 4d that was obtained in the period 1992–94. Next they review recently discovered…

Dualities as symmetries of the Supermembrane Theory

In this note I review the role played by dualities in the Supermembrane Theory compactified on a torus. Supermembrane theory realize S, T, so U-duality, as exact symmetries of the theory. There are…

We consider 5D supersymmetric black holes in string theory compactifications that partially break supersymmetry. We compactify type IIB on T 4 and then further compactify on a circle with a duality…

Being self-dual, the instantons provide precisely two gravitino zero modes, thus might induce dynamical supersymmetry breaking and imply that all would-be Peccei-Quinn symmetries that arise in four-dimensional string theories are completely broken around the string compactification scale.
