U-Manifolds
Abstract
We use non-perturbative U-duality symmetries of type II strings to construct new vacuum solutions. In some ways this generalizes the F-theory vacuum constructions. We find the possibilities of new vacuum constructions are very limited. Among them we construct new theories with N=2 supersymmetry in 3-dimensions and (1, 1) supersymmetry in 2-dimensions.
