c = 1 string as the topological theory of the conifold
(Elsevier, 1995)
N = 4 topological strings
(Elsevier, 1995)
We show how to make a topological string theory starting from an N = 4 superconformal theory. The critical dimension for this theory is c ($) over cap = 2 (c = 6). It is shown that superstrings (in both the RNS and GS ...
Dual pairs of type II string compactification
(Elsevier, 1995)
Using a U-duality symmetry of type II compactification on T-4 represented by triality action on the T-duality group, and applying the adiabatic argument we construct dual pairs of type II compactifications in lower dimensions. ...
Exact results for N = 2 compactifications of heterotic strings
(Elsevier, 1995)
We search for N = 2, d = 4 theories which can be realized both as heterotic string compactifications on K3 x T-2 and as type II string compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds. In such cases, the exact non-perturbative ...
All loop N = 2 string amplitudes
(Elsevier, 1995)
Using the N = 4 topological reformulation of N = 2 strings, we compute all loop partition function for special compactifications of N = 2 strings as a function of target moduli. We also reinterpret N = 4 topological ...
A stringy test of the fate of the conifold
(Elsevier, 1995)
By studying string loop corrections to the superpotential of Type LI strings compactified on Calabi-Yau threefolds we find a quantum stringy test and a confirmation of a recent proposal of Strominger on the fate of the ...
