Heterotic and type I string dynamics from eleven dimensions
P Hořava, E Witten - The World in Eleven Dimensions, 1999 - taylorfrancis.com
We propose that the ten-dimensional E 8× E 8 heterotic string is related to an eleven-
dimensional theory on the orbifold R10× S1/Z2 in the same way that the Type IIA string in ten …

Bound states of strings and p-branes
E Witten - Nuclear Physics B, 1996 - Elsevier
The recent discovery of an explicit conformal field theory description of Type II p-branes
makes it possible to investigate the existence of bound states of such objects. In particular, it …

Dielectric-branes
RC Myers - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
We extend the usual world-volume action for a Dp-brane to the case of N coincident Dp-
branes where the world-volume theory involves a U (N) gauge theory. The guiding principle …

Compactifications of F-theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds (II)
DR Morrison, C Vafa - Nuclear Physics B, 1996 - Elsevier
We continue our study of compactifications of F-theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds. We gain
more insight into F-theory duals of heterotic strings and provide a recipe for building F-theory …
