Comment on the stability of the Yukawa couplings and the cosmological problems of intersecting brane models

چکیده

In string theory, stabilization of moduli fields and their cosmological implications have been discussed by many authors. In this paper we do not consider conventional modulus, nor relative distance between two branes. We focus our attention to a relative position of three intersecting branes. Surprisingly, there had been no phenomonological argument on the stabilization of such moduli. We will show that the area of the corresponding triangle is not a free parameter, but an effective potential is generated from conventional loop corrections in the low energy effective theory. Of course, the stabilization does not induce any serious problem, because one is allowed to modify other parameters of the model to adjust the Yukawa couplings. Then the stabilization puts a constraint that is a different nature from the ones that have been discussed before. We also discuss cosmological problems and show a simple idea that can solve the problem.

Yukawa cosmology and intersecting brane models

In string theory, stabilization of moduli fields and their cosmological implications have been discussed by many authors. In this paper we do not consider conventional modulus, nor relative distance between two branes. We focus our attention to a relative position of three branes and discuss its cosmological problem. In general, stabilization of the relative position of three intersecting brane...

Yukawa couplings in intersecting D - brane models

We compute the Yukawa couplings among chiral fields in toroidal Type II compactifications with wrapping D6-branes intersecting at angles. Those models can yield realistic standard model spectrum living at the intersections. The Yukawa couplings depend both on the Kähler and open string moduli but not on the complex structure. They arise from worldsheet instanton corrections and are found to be ...

More about the Standard Model at Intersecting Branes 1

Intersecting D-brane models seem to be one of the most promising avenues to embed the Standard Model physics within the string context. We review here different aspects of these models. Topics include the question of SUSY and quasi-SUSY in intersecting brane models, model-building, the brane recom-bination interpretation of the SM Higgs mechanism, Yukawa couplings, the lowering of the string sc...

Lepton Flavor Violation in Intersecting D - brane Models

We investigate lepton flavor violation in the context of intersecting D-brane models. We point out that these models have a source to generate flavor violation in the trilinear scalar couplings while the geometry of the construction leads to degenerate soft scalar masses for different generations (as in the minimal supergravity model) at the string scale. The trilinear scalar couplings are not ...

The massive Elko spinor field in the de Sitter braneworld model

The Elko spinor field is a spin 1/2 fermionic quantum field with a mass dimension introduced as a candidate of dark matter. In this work, we study the localization of Elko fields on a de Sitter thick brane constructed by a canonical or phantom scalar field. By presenting the mass-independent potentials of Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes in the corresponding Schrödinger equations, it is shown that the E...
