Puzzles on the Duality between Heterotic and Type IIA Strings

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v3

Abstract

We discuss the possibility of the extension of the duality between the webs of heterotic string and the type IIA string to Calabi-Yau 3-folds with another K3 fiber by comparing the dual polyhedron of Calabi-Yau 3-folds given by Candelas, Perevalov and Rajesh.
