F-Theory Duals of Nonperturbative Heterotic E8xE8 Vacua in Six Dimensions

We present a systematic way of generating F-theory models dual to nonperturbative vacua (i.e., vacua with extra tensor multiplets) of heterotic E8xE8 strings compactified on K3, using hypersurfaces in toric varieties. In all cases, the Calabi-Yau is an elliptic fibration over a blow up of the Hirzeb...
