Putting string /string duality to the test [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 1995 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.

Heterotic/type II duality in D=4 and string-string duality [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1997 We discuss the structure of heterotic/type II duality in four dimensions as a consequence of string-string duality in six dimensions. We emphasize the new features in four dimensions which go beyond the six dimensional vacuum structure and pertain to the way particular K3 fibers can be embedded in Calabi-Yau threefolds. Our focus is on hypersurfaces as

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.

Chaotic duality in string theory [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2004 We investigate the general features of renormalization group flows near superconformal fixed points of four dimensional N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with gravity duals. The gauge theories we study arise as the world-volume theory on a set of D-branes at a Calabi-Yau singularity where a del Pezzo surface shrinks to zero size.

Nonrelativistic string theory and T-duality
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

String duality and nonsupersymmetric strings [PDF]
Physical Review D, 1998 In recent work Kachru, Kumar and Silverstein introduced a special class of non-supersymmetric type II string theories in which the cosmological constant vanishes at the first two orders of perturbation theory. Heuristic arguments suggest the cosmological constant may vanish in these theories to all orders in perturbation theory leading to a flat ...

String dualities from Matrix theory [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 1998 We suggest that the (2,0) six dimensional field theory compactified on $S^1\times K3$ is the Matrix model description of both M-theory on $K3$ and the Heterotic string on $T^3$. This proposal is different from existing proposals for the Heterotic theory. Different limits of the base space geometry give the different space-time interpretations, making M-

Note about T-duality of non-relativistic string
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 In this note we perform canonical analysis of T-duality for non-relativistic string in stringy Newton-Cartan background. We confirm recent result that T-duality along longitudinal spatial direction of stringy Newton-Cartan geometry maps non-relativistic ...

T-dualization of Gödel string cosmologies via Poisson–Lie T-duality approach
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2021 Using the homogeneous Gödel spacetimes we find some new solutions for the field equations of bosonic string effective action up to first order in $$\alpha '$$ α ′ including both dilaton and axion fields.
