The authors' main claim Comparing hints from a variety of sources, including ten--dimensional supergravity and KK reduction on SU(3)--structure manifolds, suggests a picture in which string theory extends Reid's fantasy to connect classes of both complex non-Kaehler and symplectic non-Kaehler manifolds.

We construct a class of symplectic non--Kaehler and complex non--Kaehler string theory vacua, extending and providing evidence for an earlier suggestion by Polchinski and Strominger. The class admits a mirror pairing by construction. Comparing hints from a variety of sources, including ten--dimensional supergravity and KK reduction on SU(3)--structure manifolds, suggests a picture in which string theory extends Reid's fantasy to connect classes of both complex non-Kaehler and symplectic non-Kaehler manifolds.

The paper

Original abstract

We construct a class of symplectic non--Kaehler and complex non--Kaehler string theory vacua, extending and providing evidence for an earlier suggestion by Polchinski and Strominger. The class admits a mirror pairing by construction. Comparing hints from a variety of sources, including ten--dimensional supergravity and KK reduction on SU(3)--structure manifolds, suggests a picture in which string theory extends Reid's fantasy to connect classes of both complex non-Kaehler and symplectic non-Kaehler manifolds.

Generalized N=1 Orientifold Compactifications and the Hitchin functionals
hep-th 2006-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

The paper derives N=1 Kähler potentials and superpotentials for type II orientifolds on SU(3)-structure manifolds and proposes generalized half-flat manifolds as mirrors of Calabi-Yau compactifications with NS-NS flux.
RR photons
hep-th 2011-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

Ramond-Ramond U(1) gauge bosons in type II compactifications mix with D-brane U(1)'s through torsion cycles, producing massless gauge bosons that are linear combinations of open and closed string states.
Topological strings in generalized complex space
hep-th 2006-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

A BV/AKSZ construction defines a topological sigma-model on generalized Calabi-Yau targets, recovering the A- and B-models and deriving the Kontsevich star product in the open-string sector.
Flux Compactification
hep-th 2006-10 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

Fluxes through the compact extra dimensions can stabilize all of string theory's moduli and break supersymmetry, yielding a vast landscape of vacua whose statistics may explain the small cosmological constant.
