Strong–weak coupling duality in four-dimensional string theory

A Sen - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 1994 - World Scientific
We present several pieces of evidence for strong–weak coupling duality symmetry in the
heterotic string theory, compactified on a six-dimensional torus. They include symmetry of …

Electric-magnetic duality, monopole condensation, and confinement in N= 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory

N Seiberg, E Witten - Nuclear Physics B, 1994 - Elsevier
We study the vacuum structure and don spectrum of N= 2 supersymmetric gauge theory in
four dimensions, with gauge group SU (2). The theory turns out to have remarkably rich and …

Monopoles, duality and chiral symmetry breaking in N= 2 supersymmetric QCD

N Seiberg, E Witten - Nuclear Physics B, 1994 - Elsevier
We study four dimensional N= 2 supersymmetric gauge theories with matter multiplets. For
all such models for which the gauge group is SU (2), we derive the exact metric on the …

A pair of Calabi-Yau manifolds as an exactly soluble superconformal theory

P Candelas, C Xenia, PS Green, L Parkes - Nuclear Physics B, 1991 - Elsevier
We compute the prepotentials and the geometry of the moduli spaces for a Calabi-Yau
manifold and its mirror. In this way we obtain all the sigma model corrections to the Yukawa …

A strong coupling test of S-duality

C Vafa, E Witten - Nuclear Physics B, 1994 - Elsevier
By studying the partition function of N= 4 topologically twisted supersymmetric Yang-Mills on
four-manifolds, we make an exact strong coupling test of the Montonen-Olive strong-weak …

Electric-magnetic duality and the geometric Langlands program

A Kapustin, E Witten - arxiv preprint hep-th/0604151, 2006 - arxiv.org
The geometric Langlands program can be described in a natural way by compactifying on a
Riemann surface C a twisted version of N= 4 super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions …

Superspace duality in low-energy superstrings

W Siegel - Physical Review D, 1993 - APS
We extend spacetime duality to superspace, including fermions in the low-energy limits of
superstrings. The tangent space is a curved, extended superspace. The geometry is based …

Two-vierbein formalism for string-inspired axionic gravity

W Siegel - Physical Review D, 1993 - APS
Two-vierbein formalism for string-inspired axionic gravity Page 1 PHYSICAL REVIEW D
VOLUME 47, NUMBER 12 15 JUNE 1993 Two-vierbein formalism for string-inspired axionic …

Moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifolds

P Candelas, XC de La Ossa - Nuclear physics b, 1991 - Elsevier
We present an accessible account of the local geometry of the parameter space of Calabi-
Yau manifolds. It is shown that the parameter space decomposes, at least locally, into a …
