Abstract

Description

We give an indirect argument for the matching $G^2=-π_* γ^2$ 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.
