Embedding Higher Level Kac - Moody Algebras in Heterotic String Models
Heterotic string models in which the space-time gauge symmetry is realized as a level k > 2 Kac-Moody algebra on the string world-sheet offer phenomenological features not present for the level k = 1 case (which includes all heterotic string models seriously considered to date). In particular, string models with N=l space-time supersymmetry and/or chiral matter fields can contain massless scala...
متن کاملHeterotic string.
Recent interest in superstring unified field theories has been sparked by the discovery of Green and Schwarz' that nonorientable (type I) open and closed superstrings with N = 1 supersymmetry are finite and free of anomalies if the gauge group is SO(32). Previously the only consistent, anomaly-free3 superstring theory was that of orientable (type II) N = 2 supersymmetric closed strings. The new...
متن کاملOrbifold SUSY GUT from the Heterotic String
From the string partition function, we discuss the mass-shell and GSO projection conditions valid for KaluzaKlein (KK) as well as massless states in the heterotic string theory compactified on a nonprime orbifold. Using the obtained conditions we construct a 4D string standard model, which is embedded in a 6D SUSY GUT by including KK states above the compactification scale. We discuss the strin...
متن کاملSupersymmetric standard model from the heterotic string.
We present a [FORMULA: SEE TEXT] orbifold compactification of the E8xE8 heterotic string which leads to the (supersymmetric) standard model gauge group and matter content. The quarks and leptons appear as three 16-plets of SO(10), whereas the Higgs fields do not form complete SO(10) multiplets. The model has large vacuum degeneracy. For generic vacua, no exotic states appear at low energies and...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Quantum Black Holes in Five Dimensional Heterotic String Vacua
Exact black hole solutions of the five dimensional heterotic S-T -U model including all perturbative quantum corrections and preserving 1/2 of N = 2 supersymmetry are studied. It is shown that the quantum corrections yield a bound on electric charges and harmonic functions of the solutions.
