Smooth supergravity solutions and string states

In this thesis we study smooth supergravity solutions and their relation to string theory in two different contexts; quotient spaces and asymptotically flat solitonic solutions. We classify discrete cyclic quotients of р + l-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. These provide interesting models for stri...
