We study the large volume limit of the scalar potential in Calabi-Yau flux compactifications of type IIB string theory. Under… (More)

We construct a cubic field theory which provides all genus amplitudes of the topological A-model for all non-compact Calabi-Yau… (More)

We show how turning on Flux for RR (and NS-NS) field strengths on non-compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds can serve as a way to partially… (More)

We consider a class of special Lagrangian subspaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds and identify their mirrors, using the recent… (More)

Just as parallel threebranes on a smooth manifold are related to string theory on AdS5 × S, parallel threebranes near a conical… (More)

The 't Hooft expansion of SU(N) Chern-Simons theory on S' is proposed to be exactly dual to the topological closed string theory… (More)

We study the boundary states of D-branes wrapped around supersymmetric cycles in a general Calabi-Yau manifold. In particular, we… (More)

In a certain strong coupling limit, compactification of the E8 ×E8 heterotic string on a Calabi-Yau manifold X can be described… (More)

We search for N = 2, d = 4 theories which can be realized both as heterotic string compactifications on K3 ×T 2 and as type II… (More)

We consider families F(∆) consisting of complex (n − 1)-dimensional projective algebraic compactifications of ∆-regular affine… (More)
