What is From twists and shifts to L-R asymmetric D-branes about?

## Abstract In the first part of the talk, we discuss non‐geometric twists and shifts and briefly review asymmetric orbifolds and free fermion constructions. These allow us to build Type IIB models with N = 1~L~ + 1~R~ and N = 1~L~ + 0~R~ models having few or no moduli. We then consider unoriented projections of the former and (‘exotic’) D‐branes in the latter. In the second part, devoted to L‐R asymmetric D‐branes, we review how extended supergravity vacua in D = 4 can be embedded in Type II superstrings. We then identify bound states of D‐branes with residual susy and non‐trivial R‐R couplings. We discuss the N = 6 = 2~L~ + 4~R~ case in detail and sketch other extended susy cases. Finally we describe the resulting open string excitations. We conclude with some speculations and possible interesting developments.
