Modern Physics Letters A, 2006 After a brief review of string and M-theory we point out some deficiencies. Partly to rectify them, we present several arguments for "F-theory", enlarging spacetime to (2, 10) signature, following the original suggestion of C. Vafa. We introduce a suggestive supersymmetric 27-plet of particles, associated to the exceptional symmetric hermitian space ...

On singular fibres in F-theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 In this paper, we propose a connection between the field theory local model (Katz-Vafa field theory) and the type of singular fibre in flat crepant resolutions of elliptic Calabi-Yau fourfolds, a class of fourfolds considered by Esole and Yau. We review the analysis of degenerate fibres for models with gauge groups SU(5) and SO(10) in detail, and ...

Non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries in F-theory [PDF]
, 2016 The presence of non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries in four-dimensional F-theory compactifications is investigated. Such symmetries are shown to arise from seven-brane configurations in genuine F-theory settings without a weak string coupling ...

Nuclear Physics B, 1996 We construct compact examples of D-manifolds for type IIB strings. The construction has a natural interpretation in terms of compactification of a 12 dimensional `F-theory'. We provide evidence for a more natural reformulation of type IIB theory in terms of F-theory.

F-theory at constant coupling [PDF]
Physics Letters B, 1996 The subspace of the moduli space of F-theory on K3 over which the coupling remains constant develops new branches at special values of this coupling. These values correspond to fixed points under the SL(2,Z) duality group of the type IIB string. The branches contain points where K3 degenerates to orbifolds of the four-torus by Z_3,Z_4 and Z_6.

F-theory from fundamental five-branes
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We describe the worldvolume for the bosonic sector of the lower-dimensional F-theory that embeds 4D, N=1 M-theory and the 3D Type II superstring. The worldvolume (5-brane) theory is that of a single 6D gauge 2-form X MN (σ P ) whose field strength is ...

Tate’s algorithm and F-theory [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2011 The "Tate forms" for elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds are reconsidered in order to determine their general validity. We point out that there were some implicit assumptions made in the original derivation of these "Tate forms" from the Tate algorithm.

Covariant formulation of f(Q) theory
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022 In Symmetric Teleparallel General Relativity, gravity is attributed to the non-metricity. The so-called “coincident gauge” is usually taken in this theory so that the affine connection vanishes and the metric is the only fundamental variable.

Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2020 In the early experiments on radiocommunication, Hertz, Branly, Lodge, Marconi used as emitter a spark produced by a high electric tension. Why did this spark emit an electromagnetic radiation?
