Abstract
I will revisit the physics of Heterotic Strings on four-dimensional ADE singularities in light of recent progress in the context of higher global symmetries combined with our improved understanding of 6d SCFTs over the past decade. In particular, on ADE singularities the fractional heterotic little string instantons enjoy a continuous 2 group symmetry that one can exploit to constrain possible networks of T-dualities. These predictions are confirmed exploiting duality with F-theory, and also shed light on the question of the geometric engineering limit of heterotic strings on ALE spaces. Based on joint works with Kantaro Ohmori, Paul-Konstantin Öhlmann and Muyang Liu.
