Splitting Fields for E8-torsors

چکیده

We show that every algebraic group of type E8 over any field becomes split over some field extension of degree dividing 26 · 32 · 5 = 2880. This improves a bound by Tits and, in fact, is optimal.

Three family Z 3 orbifold trinification , MSSM and doublet - triplet splitting problem

A Z3 orbifold compactification of E8×E′ 8 heterotic string is considered toward a trinification SU(3)3 with three light families. The GUT scale VEV’s of the SU(2)W ×U(1)Y × SU(3)c singlet chiral fields in two sets of the trinification spectrum allow an acceptable symmetry breaking pattern toward MSSM. We show that a doublet-triplet splitting is related to the absence of a ∆B nonzero operator. [

Equivariant Vector Fields on Non-trivial So3-torsors and Differential Galois Theory

We show how to produce SO3-equivariant vector fields on non-trivial SO3-torsors which correspond to quadratic forms non-equivalent to the unit form. We then show an example of a Picard-Vessiot extension with group SO3 which is the function field of a non-trivial SO3-torsor.

Equivariant vector fields on non-trivial SOn-torsors and differential Galois theory

We show how to produce SOn-equivariant vector fields on non-trivial SOn-torsors which correspond to quadratic forms non-equivalent to the unit form. For n 3 we then give an example of a Picard–Vessiot extension with group SOn which is the function field of a non-trivial SOn-torsor. © 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

A Standard Model from the E8 × E8 Heterotic Superstring

In a previous paper, we introduced a heterotic standard model and discussed its basic properties. This vacuum has the spectrum of the MSSM with one additional pair of Higgs-Higgs conjugate fields and a small number of uncharged moduli. In this paper, the requisite vector bundles are formulated; specifically, stable, holomorphic bundles with structure group SU(N) on smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds ...

VARIATIONS ON A THEME OF GROUPS SPLITTING BY A QUADRATIC EXTENSION AND GROTHENDIECK-SERRE CONJECTURE FOR GROUP SCHEMES F4 WITH TRIVIAL g3 INVARIANT

We study structure properties of reductive group schemes defined over a local ring and splitting over its étale quadratic extension. As an application we prove Serre–Grothendieck conjecture on rationally trivial torsors over a local regular ring containing a field of characteristic 0 for group schemes of type F4 with trivial g3 invariant.
