Non-supersymmetric AdS from String Theory
SCIPOST PHYSICS(2023)
摘要
We construct non-supersymmetric AdS_3AdS3 solutions of the \mathrm O(16)× \mathrm O(16)O(16)×O(16) heterotic string. Most of the backgrounds have a classical worldsheet definition but are quantum string vacua in the sense that string loop corrections change the curvature of spacetime. At one-loop, the change in the cosmological constant is positive but never sufficient to uplift to de Sitter space. By computing the spectrum of spacetime scalars, we show that there are no tachyons below the BF bound. We also show that there is a solution with no spacetime NS-NS flux. This background has no classical string limit. Surprisingly, there appears to be parametric control over these constructions, which provide a framework for exploring quantum gravity and holography without supersymmetry.
