Freezing of gauge symmetries in the heterotic string on T 4
Abstract We derive a map relating the gauge symmetry groups of heterotic strings on T 4 to other components of the moduli space with rank reduction. This generalizes the results for T 2 and T 3 which mirror the singularity freezing mechanism of K3 surfaces in F and M-theory, respectively. The novel...
