TASI Lectures on Perturbative String Theories [PDF]
These lecture notes are based on a course on string theories given by Hirosi Ooguri in the first week of TASI 96 Summer School at Boulder, Colorado. It is an introductory course designed to provide students with minimum knowledge before they attend more ...

Properties of enhançons in supergravity [PDF]
A certain class of naked singularities, related to N = 2 pure super Yang-Mills theory, are resolved in string theory with the enhançon mechanism. We study the properties of the enhançon in supergravity.

G-structures and superstrings from the worldsheet
G-structures, where G is a Lie group, are a uniform characterisation of many differential geometric structures of interest in supersymmetric compactifications of string theories.

Toward the construction of realistic models from Superstrings [PDF]
総合研究大学院大学博士(理学)The superstring theory has been considered as an important candidate for a fundamental theory. There exist five consistent superstring theory: type I, type IIA, type IIB, SO(32) heterotic and E8×E8 heterotic theories.

Superstrings in general backgrounds [PDF]
In the present thesis, some aspects of superstrings in general backgrounds are studied. The thesis divides into three parts. The first is devoted to a careful study of very convenient superspace conventions which are a basic tool for the second part.

Revisiting noninteracting string partition functions in Rindler space
We revisit noninteracting string partition functions in Rindler space by summing over fields in the spectrum. In field theory, the total partition function splits in a natural way into a piece that does not contain surface terms and a piece consisting of

Explorations of four and five dimensional black hole spacetimes [PDF]
This thesis concentrates on four and five dimensional black holes and their associated geodesies. Some coordinate charts are presented, which are useful in the analysis of both static and rotating black holes, and their mathematical properties ...

Perturbative string thermodynamics near black hole horizons
We provide further computations and ideas to the problem of near-Hagedorn string thermodynamics near (uncharged) black hole horizons, building upon our earlier work JHEP 1403 (2014) 086. The relevance of long strings to one-loop black hole thermodynamics

Upper bound on the Atiyah-Singer index from tadpole cancellation
We propose an upper bound on the Atiyah-Singer index in the effective action of string theory. For E 8 × E 8 ′ $$ {E}_8^{\prime } $$ and SO(32) heterotic string theories on smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds with line bundles, we find that the tadpole ...
