Hořava-Witten theory on S¹∨S¹ is dual to a type 0B orientifold with SO(16)^4 gauge group, explaining gauge group doubling via the geometry's junction and revealing two variants from E8 wall orientations.

abstract
A flux p-brane in D dimensions has (p+1)-dimensional Poincare invariance and a nonzero rank (D-p-1) field strength tangent to the transverse dimensions. We find a family of such solutions in string theory and M-theory and investigate their properties.

Ho\v{r}ava-Witten theory on ${\mathbf{S}}^1\vee{\mathbf{S}}^1$ as type 0 orientifold
Hořava-Witten theory on S¹∨S¹ is dual to a type 0B orientifold with SO(16)^4 gauge group, explaining gauge group doubling via the geometry's junction and revealing two variants from E8 wall orientations.
