F-theory has been receiving more attention in the past few years because its rich structure allows to solve many problems of the Standard Model and Grand Unification Theory. This theory is also important because of the necessity to solve the problem of vacuum stability. A simpler solution of F-theory is used to describe the Type IIB string theory. For the classification of D-brane charges in superstring theory of Type IIB is applied K-theory. This approach provides an access to gauge fields connected with vector bundles, classified by K-theory. This technique implements the resolution of issues related to the structure of scales and hierarchies, the gauge group and charged matter content.
