A T-duality of non-supersymmetric heterotic strings and an implication for Topological Modular Forms

Abstract Motivated by recent developments connecting non-supersymmetric heterotic string theory to the theory of Topological Modular Forms (TMF), we show that the worldsheet theory with central charge (17, 3 2 $$ \frac{3}{2} $$ ) obtained by fibering the (E 8)1 × (E 8)1 current algebra over the two...
