Flux Vacua and Branes of the Minimal Superstring [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2005 We analyze exactly the simplest minimal superstring theory, using its dual matrix model. Its target space is one dimensional (the Liouville direction), and the background fields include a linear dilaton, a possible tachyon condensate, and RR flux. The theory has both charged and neutral branes, and these exhibit new and surprising phenomena. The smooth

Symmetries of cosmological superstring vacua [PDF]
Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics, 1991 Abstract The concept of discrete scale-factor-duality transformations is extended to a full, continuous O(d, d) group. The action of the group transforms “cosmological” solutions of the low-energy, string-modified Einstein equations (including non-trivial dilaton and antisymmetric tensor fields) into other solutions, thus representing the natural ...

The “landscape” of Pati–Salam heterotic superstring vacua [PDF]
Fortschritte Der Physik, 2010 AbstractThe main aspects of a recently developed method for classification of heterotic superstring vacua in the Free Fermionic Formulation are presented. Using these techniques we classify a big number of approximately 1015 heterotic string vacua with Pati–Salam, SU(4) × SU(2)L × SU(2)R gauge symmetry with respect to their main phenomenological ...

Geometry and Quantum Symmetries of Superstring Vacua [PDF]
, 1992 We report on some recent progress which has been made in the understanding of general features of superstring compactifications. The following aspects are discussed: special geometry of the moduli space of (2,2) vacua, target-space duality symmetries, differential equations for the periods of holomorphic three-forms, and higher loop (genus) string ...

Superstring Vacua of 4-dimensional PP-Waves with Enhanced Supersymmetry [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2002 We study the superstring vacua constructed from the conformal field theories of the type H_4 x M, where H_4 denotes the super Nappi-Witten model (super WZW model on the 4-dimensional Heisenberg group H_4) and M denotes an arbitrary N=2 rational superconformal field theory with c=9.

Symmetries on the moduli space of (2,2) superstring vacua
Nuclear Physics B, 1991 Abstract Symmetries of the space of (2,2) string vacua for c = 3, 6, 9 are discussed in the context of orbifoldized Landau-Ginzburg theories. A general method for finding the maximal symmetry groups on the moduli space of untwisted marginal operators is presented, by studying deformations of superpotentials.
