Abstract:
Program:
- What string theory is about? Bosonic string, one-loop modular invariance, D-branes, T-duality.
- Superstring: GSO projection, type IIA and IIB string theories, D-branes.
- Heterotic string.
- Compactifications: geometric (SUGRA), non-geometric, matrix models.
- Matrix models. [I. K.]
- Type I string theory, orientifolds. [C. A.]
- SUGRA, dualities. [C. A.]
- AdS/CFT correspondence. [U. M.]
- M-theory. [P. V.]
- Instantons and the AdS/CFT correspondence. [P. V.]
