SUMMARY:Symmetries from wall crossing in K3 string theories - Roberto Volp

DESCRIPTION:I will consider a large class of four dimensional N=4 string m
 odels obtained from compactifications of type II string theory on K3 x T^2
  and orbifolds thereof. I will show that the multiplicities of 1/4 BPS sta
 tes in such models can be determined (almost) uniquely by imposing some si
 mple consistency condition. The main ingredient in this derivation is a ca
 reful analysis of the wall crossing phenomenon. These results lead to a be
 tter understanding of the action of discrete groups of symmetries on the B
 PS spectrum of K3 string models and might shed some light on the mysteriou
 s Umbral moonshine conjectures. This talk is based on joint work with Nata
 lie Paquette and Max Zimet.
