String theory dynamics in various dimensions
Open accessAbstract
Abstract The strong coupling dynamics of string theories in dimension d ⩾ 4 are studied. It is argued, among other things, that eleven-dimensional supergravity arises as a low energy limit of the ten-dimensional Type IIA superstring, and that a recently conjectured duality between the heterotic string and Type IIA superstrings controls the strong coupling dynamics of the heterotic string in five, six, and seven dimensions and implies S -duality for both heterotic and Type II strings.

“Indeed, there is by now convincing evidence [1,7-9] that the strong coupling limit of the Type I superstring in ten dimensions is the weakly coupled SO(32) heterotic string, and vice-versa, so we would not want to relate either of the two SO(32) theories to elevendimensional supergravity.”

“the moduli field which determines the value of the basic ten-dimensional string coupling constant gs can be viewed (à la Kaluza–Klein) as an additional metric component g11 11(x), measuring the size of a compactified eleventh dimension [31].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
