On Mathieu moonshine and Gromov-Witten invariants
We provide further evidence that CY 3 manifolds are involved in an intricate way in Mathieu moonshine, i.e., their Gromov-Witten invariants are related to the expansion coefficients of the twined/twisted-twined elliptic genera of K3.

A supermembrane description of string-string duality [PDF]
We show that the open membrane action on $T^3\times S^1/Z^2$ is equivalent to the closed membrane action on K3. The main difference between the two actions is that one generates the KK modes in the worldvolume action which is the strong coupling limit of \IIA\ while the other action generates the KK modes in a worldsheet action.

Torus bundles, automorphisms and T-duality
We reconsider some older constructions of T-duality, based on automorphisms of the worldsheet operator algebra, in a modern context. It has been long known that at special points in the moduli space of torus compactifications, the target space gauge ...

On open/closed string duality [PDF]
It was recently shown, using the AdS/CFT correspondence, that the low energy effective action of a large $N$ open string theory satisfies a holographic RG flow equation closely related to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of 5-d supergravity. In this paper we re-obtain the same flow equation in the dual regime of small 't Hooft coupling $λ\ll 1$.

We discuss duality between Type IIA string theory, eleven-dimensional supergravity, and heterotic string theory in four spacetime dimensions with $N=1$ supersymmetry. We find theories whose infrared limit is trivial at enhanced symmetry points as well as theories with $N=1$ supersymmetry but the field content of $N=4$ theories which flow to the $N=4 ...

The complex Liouville string: The matrix integral
We propose a duality between the complex Liouville string and a two-matrix integral. The complex Liouville string is defined by coupling two Liouville theories with complex central charges $c = 13 ± i \lambda$ on the worldsheet.

We propose a new AdS 3 /CFT 2 duality, in which the bulk string theory has a target spacetime AdS 3 times a squashed three-sphere S ♭ 3 $$ {\mathbbm{S}}_{\flat}^3 $$ , and the dual CFT 2 is a symmetric product of sigma models on ℝ ϕ × S ♭ 3 $$ {\mathbbm ...

Open string T-duality in double space
The role of double space is essential in the new interpretation of T-duality and consequently in an attempt to construct M-theory. The case of the open string is missing in such an approach because until now there has been no appropriate formulation of ...

Niemeier Lattices in the Free Fermionic Heterotic–String Formulation
The spinor–vector duality was discovered in free fermionic constructions of the heterotic string in four dimensions. It played a key role in the construction of heterotic–string models with an anomaly-free extra Z′ symmetry that may remain unbroken down ...
