We express one-loop string amplitudes involving both open and closed strings as sum over pure open string amplitudes. These findings generalize the analogous tree-level result to higher loops and extend the tree-level observation that in…

We give a simple prescription for computing, in the framework of the bosonic string theory, off-shell one-loop amplitudes with any number of external massless particles, both for the open and for the closed string. We discuss their…

We present several examples of T^8/P orbifolds with $P \subset SU(4)$. We compute their Hodge numbers and consider turning on discrete torsion. We then study supersymmetric compactifications of type II, heterotic, and type I strings on…

We construct non-geometric string compactifications by using the F-theory dual of the heterotic string compactified on a two-torus with two Wilson line parameters, together with a close connection between modular forms and the equations for…

The low-energy limit of the 6D non-critical string theory with $N=1$ SUSY and $E_8$ chiral current algebra compactified on $T^2$ is generically an $N=2$ $U(1)$ vector multiplet. We study the analog of the Seiberg-Witten solution for the…

We calculate one-loop string amplitudes of open and closed strings with N=1,2,4 supersymmetry in four and six dimensions, by compactification on Calabi-Yau and K3 orbifolds. In particular, we develop a method to combine contributions from…

We establish a symmetry map which relates two low-energy heterotic string theories with different numbers of the Abelian gauge fields compactified from the diverse to three dimensions on a torus. We discuss two applications of the…

We consider compactification of the SO(32) heterotic string on a 6-dimensional Z_3 orbifold with one discrete Wilson line. A complete set of all possible embeddings is given, 159 in all. The unbroken subgroups of SO(32) are tabulated. The…

Characters of $E_8\otimes E_8$ and SO(32) heterotic strings involving the full internal symmetry Cartan subalgebra generators are defined after circle compactification so that they are T dual. The novel point, as compared with an earlier…

We consider Heterotic string theories in the DLCQ. We derive that the matrix model of the Spin(32)/$Z_2$ Heterotic theory is the theory living on N D-strings in type I wound on a circle with no Spin(32)/$Z_2$ Wilson line on the circle. This…

We work out the relation between automorphic forms on SO(s+2,2) and gauge one-loop corrections of heterotic K3 x T^2 string compactifications for the cases s=0,1. We find that one-loop gauge corrections of any orbifold limit of K3 can…

We propose a geometric relation between closed and open string amplitudes at one-loop. After imposing a homological splitting on the world-sheet torus twisted intersection theory is used to establish a one-loop double copy relation. The…

Following the idea of Refs.[1,2], the double-copy-like decomposition of exchanged internal states in the world-line limit of one-loop string amplitudes is systematically formulated and generalized to both bosonic and heterotic string…

We review a novel method for evaluating one-loop BPS-saturated amplitudes in string theory. Contrary to traditional techniques of unfolding the fundamental domain F against the Narain lattice, which are only valid in certain regions of the…

We demonstrate the equivalence of all loop closed topological string amplitudes on toric local Calabi-Yau threefolds with computations of certain knot invariants for Chern-Simons theory. We use this equivalence to compute the topological…

We study the high-energy limit of $2 \to 2$ one-loop string amplitudes at fixed momentum transfer. For the closed string, the high-energy behaviour of the amplitudes can be determined from Regge theory just like in field theory, as was…

I give an overview of open, closed and heterotic N=2 strings. At the tree level I derive the effective field theories of all the strings, and discuss the group theory of the N=2 open string and the interaction between its open and closed…

We look at energies of the low lying states of the hadronic string in three dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory by forming correlation matrices among different sources. We are able to go to previously inaccessible time separations. This…

Loop amplitudes in string theories reduce to those of gauge theories and (super)gravity in their worldline description as the inverse string tension $\alpha'$ tends to zero. The appearance of reducible diagrams in these $\alpha' \rightarrow…

In this thesis, we investigate the low-energy expansion of scattering amplitudes of closed strings at one-loop level (i.e. at genus one) in a ten-dimensional Minkowski background using a special class of functions called modular graph…
