Heterotic-type IIA duality with fluxes

Abstract

In this paper we study a possible non-perturbative dual of the heterotic string compactified on K3 x T2 in the presence of background fluxes. We show that type IIA string theory compactified on manifolds with SU(3) structure can account for a subset of the possible heterotic fluxes. This extends our previous analysis to a case of a non-perturbative duality with fluxes.
