Self-Dual Nonsupersymmetric Type II String Compactifications
read the original abstract
It has recently been proposed that certain nonsupersymmetric type II orbifolds have vanishing perturbative contributions to the cosmological constant. We show that techniques of Sen and Vafa allow one to construct dual type II descriptions of these models (some of which have no weakly coupled heterotic dual). The dual type II models are given by the same orbifolds with the string coupling $S$ and a $T^2$ volume $T$ exchanged. This allows us to argue that in various strongly coupled limits of the original type II models, there are weakly coupled duals which exhibit the same perturbative cancellations as the original models.

Asymmetric orbifolds with vanishing one-loop vacuum energy
Non-supersymmetric type II asymmetric orbifolds with Z_k x Z_k Abelian point groups (k=2,3,4) admit vanishing one-loop vacuum energy via sector-wise conservation of a supercharge-like operator.

Bordisms between 9d type IIB supergravities and commutator widths of duality groups
Proposes a refinement of the Swampland Cobordism Conjecture for Ω1(BG) with duality bundle G, where diverging commutator width of G requires infinitely many duality defects to realize monodromies via gravitational solitons.

Proposes a refinement of the Swampland Cobordism Conjecture for duality groups, arguing that diverging commutator widths necessitate infinitely many duality defects to realize monodromies in 9d supergravity bordisms.

A Duality Web for Non-Supersymmetric Strings
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...
