Partition Functions of Torsion >1 Dyons in Heterotic String Theory on T6
Abstract
The original proposal of Dijkgraaf, Verlinde and Verlinde for the quarter BPS dyon partition function in heterotic string theory on T6 is known to correctly produce the degeneracy of dyons of torsion 1, i.e. dyons for which gcd(Q P)=1. We propose a generalization of this formula for dyons of arbitrary torsion. Our proposal satisfies the constraints coming from S-duality invariance, wall crossing formula, black hole entropy and the gauge theory limit. Furthermore using our proposal we derive a general wall crossing formula that is valid even when both the decay products are non-primitive half-BPS dyons.
