A no-go theorem for string warped compactifications

We give necessary conditions for the existence of perturbative heterotic and type II string warped compactifications preserving eight and four supersymmetries to four spacetime dimensions, respectively. In particular, we find that the only compactifications of heterotic string with the spin connecti...

description We give necessary conditions for the existence of perturbative heterotic and type II string warped compactifications preserving eight and four supersymmetries to four spacetime dimensions, respectively. In particular, we find that the only compactifications of heterotic string with the spin connection embedded in the gauge connection and type II strings are those on Calabi-Yau manifolds with constant dilaton. We obtain similar results for compactifications to six and to two dimensions.
