A new twist on heterotic string compactifications

A new twist on heterotic string compactifications

Abstract A rich pattern of gauge symmetries is found in the moduli space of heterotic string toroidal compactifications, at fixed points of the T-duality transformations. We analyze this pattern for generic tori, and scrutinize in full detail compactifications on a circle, where we find all the maxi...
