Putting string/string duality to the test [PDF]

Nucl.Phys. B436 (1995) 507-528, 1994
After simultaneous compactification of spacetime and worldvolume on $K3$, the $D=10$ heterotic fivebrane with gauge group $SO(32)$ behaves like a $D=6$ heterotic string with gauge group $SO(28) \times SU(2)$, but with Kac--Moody levels different from those of the fundamental string.

Four-Dimensional String/String Duality [PDF]

Nucl.Phys. B411 (1994) 473-486, 1993
We present supersymmetric soliton solutions of the four-dimensional heterotic string corresponding to monopoles, strings and domain walls. These solutions admit the $D=10$ interpretation of a fivebrane wrapped around $5$, $4$ or $3$ of the $6$ toroidally compactified dimensions and are arguably exact to all orders in $\alpha'$.

Strong/Weak Coupling Duality from the Dual String [PDF]

Nucl.Phys.B442:47-63,1995, 1995
On compactification to six spacetime dimensions, the fundamental heterotic string admits as a soliton a dual string whose effective worldsheet action couples to the background fields of the dual formulation of six-dimensional supergravity. On further toroidal compactification to four spacetime dimensions, the dual string acquires an $O(2,2;Z)$ target ...

Cosmological Quantum String Vacua and String-String Duality [PDF]

Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 52A (1997) 344-346, 1996
Implications of string-string dualities to cosmological string vacua are discussed. Cosmological vacua of classical string theories comprise of disjoint classses mapped one another by scale-factor T-duality. Each classes are, however, afflicted with initial/final cosmological singularities.

Heterotic-Type II String Duality and the H-Monopole Problem [PDF]

, 1995
Since T-duality has been proved only perturbatively and most of the heterotic states map into solitonic, non-perturbative, type II states, the 6-dimensional string-string duality between the heterotic string and the type II string is not sufficient to ...

Dualities in Five Dimensions and Charged String Solutions [PDF]

, 1995
We consider an eleven dimensional supergravity compactified on $K3\times T^2$ and show that the resulting five dimensional theory has identical massless states as that of heterotic string compactified on a specific five torus $T^5$.

Nonrelativistic string theory and T-duality [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Nonrelativistic string theory in flat spacetime is described by a two-dimensional quantum field theory with a nonrelativistic global symmetry acting on the worldsheet fields. Nonrelativistic string theory is unitary, ultraviolet complete and has a string

Solitons, Black Holes and Duality in String Theory [PDF]

Nucl.Phys.Proc.Suppl. 61A (1998) 99-110, 1997
These lectures are intended as an introduction to some of the basic aspects of string solitons, duality and black holes. We begin with a discussion of the role of classical solutions in duality, then focus on string/string duality and fundamental membranes.

Note about canonical description of T-duality along light-like isometry

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020
In this short note we analyze canonical description of T-duality along light-like isometry. We show that T-duality of relativistic string theory on this background leads to non-relativistic string theory action on T-dual background.
