Spectra of 4D, N=1 Type I String Vacua on Non-Toroidal CY Threefolds
arXiv:hep-th/9806131 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(98)00959-9
Abstract
We compute the massless spectra of some four dimensional, N=1 supersymmetric compactifications of the type I string. The backgrounds are non-toroidal Calabi-Yau manifolds described at special points in moduli space by Gepner models. Surprisingly, the abstract conformal field theory computation reveals Chan-Paton gauge groups as big as SO(12) x SO(20) or SO(8)^4 x SO(4)^3.
