  1. Ho\v{r}ava-Witten theory on ${\mathbf{S}}^1\vee{\mathbf{S}}^1$ as type 0 orientifold

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Hořava-Witten theory on S¹∨S¹ is dual to a type 0B orientifold with SO(16)^4 gauge group, explaining gauge group doubling via the geometry's junction and revealing two variants from E8 wall orientations.

    hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 7.0

    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.

  3. A Duality Web for Non-Supersymmetric Strings

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A duality web is proposed in which Z2 quotients of M-theory on S1 vee S1 and F-theory on (S1 vee S1) x S1 map to 0A/0B orientifolds and non-supersymmetric E-type and D-type heterotic strings, providing evidence for ex...

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Non-supersymmetric heterotic string compactifications on AdS4 x S3 x S3 with two fluxes develop tachyonic instabilities when fluxes are close in magnitude and show inverse scale separation when far apart, but brane nu...

  5. Dark energy from string theory: an introductory review

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 2.0

    String theory imposes constraints on dark energy but permits various construction attempts for de Sitter vacua and single-field exponential quintessence models despite obstructions.
