Explicit worldsheet constructions of 9d junctions joining several 10d string theories via generalized RG flow interpolations and closed tachyon condensation, providing dynamical realizations of multi-theory cobordisms.
GSO projection consistency in Type II string theory requires the target space X to admit a spin structure (or G-equivariant spin structure for orbifolds), identified by computing the mixed bordism group Ω₃^spin(Bℤ₂ × X) and classifying corresponding theta angles.
Worldsheet effects from wedge singularities plus D0-brane emergence reproduce the tree-level tachyon mass in type 0A strings within a specific scaling limit.
Classifies shift vectors for heterotic orbifolds on Enriques surfaces, analyzes spectra, and interprets some models as non-supersymmetric 10D heterotic compactifications with tachyon projection.
