Abstract
We use non-perturbative U-duality symmetries of type II strings to construct new vacuum solutions. In some ways this generalizes the F-theory vacuum constructions. We find the possibilities of new vacuum constructions are very limited. Among them we construct new theories with N = 2 supersymmetry in 3 dimensions and (1,1) supersymmetry in 2 dimensions.
