Aspects of String unification
We consider the phenomenological implications of a class of compactified string theories which naturally reproduces the flavour multiplet structure of the Standard Model. The implications for gauge unification depends on which of three possibilities is realised for obtaining light Higgs multiplets. The more conventional one leads to predictions for the gauge couplings close to that of the MSSM ...
متن کاملUnification of String Dualities
We argue that all conjectured dualities involving various string, Mand F theory compactifications can be ‘derived’ from the conjectured duality between type I and SO(32) heterotic string theory, T-dualities, and the definition of Mand F theories. (Based on a talk given at the conference on ‘Advanced Quantum Field Theory’, Le Londe-les-Maures, France, Aug.31-Sept.5, 1996, in memory of Claude Itz...
متن کاملTopics in String Unification
I discuss several aspects of strings as unified theories. After recalling the difficulties of the simplest supersymmetric grand unification schemes I emphasize the distinct features of string unification. An important role in constraining the effective low energy physics from strings is played by duality symmetries. The discussed topics include the unification of coupling constants (computation...
متن کاملHeterotic String Optical Unification
The lower limit to string coupling unification in weakly coupled heteroticstrings was shown by Kaplunovsky to be around ΛH ∼ 5 × 1017 GeV. Incontrast, under the scenario of an intermediate scale desert, the SU(3)C ×SU(2)L × U(1)Y ([321]) Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM)unification scale is ΛU ∼ 2.5 × 1016 GeV. Optical unification was proposed by Giedt as a ro...
متن کاملString Theory and Unification
The use of the AdS/CFT correspondence to arrive at quiver gauge field theories is discussed. An abelian orbifold with the finite group Zp can give rise to a nonsupersymmetric G = U(N) gauge theory with chiral fermions and complex scalars in different bi-fundamental representations of G. The precision measurements at the Z resonance suggest the values p = 12 and N = 3, and a unifications scale M...
