Description

In this talk I will concentrate on the Heterotic - Type IIA duality when fluxes are turned on. I will show that in a specific case the duality involves M-theory rather than type IIA strings. For this case I will show the construction on the M-theory side which is dual to the heterotic compactifiactions on K3 x T^2 when gauge field fluxes along the torus are considered.
