D=6, N=1 String Vacua and Duality

preprint1997arXivOpen access

Abstract

We review the structure D=6,N=1D=6, N=1 string vacua with emphasis on the different connections due to T-dualities and S-dualities. The topics discussed include: Anomaly cancellation; K3 and orbifold D=6,N=1D=6, N=1 heterotic compactifications; T-dualities between E8×E8E_8\times E_8 and Spin(32)/Z2Spin(32)/Z_2 heterotic vacua; non-perturbative heterotic vacua and small instantons; N=2 Type-II/Heterotic duality in D=4 ; F-theory/heterotic duality in D=6; and heterotic/heterotic duality in six and four dimensions.
