Free Fermionic Constructions of Heterotic Strings
Ioannis Florakis, John Rizos
This chapter is an introduction to the Free Fermionic Formulation of String Theory, with emphasis on heterotic model building. After a brief review of bosonization in two dimension…
From Free-Fermionic Constructions to Orbifolds and Back
Ioannis Florakis, John Rizos
We systematically develop the explicit map between string vacua constructed in the Free Fermionic Formulation and their toroidal orbifold counterparts. We illustra…
String Model Building on Quantum Annealers
Steven A. Abel, Luca A. Nutricati, John Rizos
We explore for the first time the direct construction of string models on quantum annealers, and investigate their efficiency and effectiveness in the model discovery process. Thro…
Three-Generation Super No-Scale Models in Heterotic Superstrings
Ioannis Florakis, John Rizos, Konstantinos Violaris-Gountonis
We derive the conditions for the one-loop contribution to the cosmological constant to be exponentially suppressed in a class of heterotic string compactifications with three gener…
Particle physics and cosmology of the string derived no-scale flipped
Ignatios Antoniadis, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos, John Rizos
In a recent paper, we identified a cosmological sector of a flipped model derived in the free fermionic formulation of the heterotic superstring, containing the inflaton an…
Super No-Scale Models with Pati-Salam Gauge Group
Ioannis Florakis, John Rizos, Konstantinos Violaris-Gountonis
We construct and classify heterotic models where supersymmetry is spontaneously broken à la Scherk-Schwarz. The theories contain chiral matter transforming under an…
