On discrete Twist and Four-Flux in N=1 heterotic/F-theory compactifications

Abstract

We give an indirect argument for the matching G2=-π* γ2 of four-flux and discrete twist in the duality between N=1 heterotic string and F-theory. This treats in detail the Euler number computation for the physically relevant case of a Calabi-Yau fourfold with singularities.
