Classification of order-two T-duality orbifolds at the SO(12) free fermionic point
Alon E. Faraggi, Stefan Groot Nibbelink, Benjamin Percival
Asymmetric orbifolds provide concrete examples of non-geometric constructions dubbed T-folds. All Z2 point groups of six dimensional asymmetric order-two orbifolds are identified.…
GLSM resolutions of torsional heterotic Z2xZ2 orbifolds
Stefan Groot Nibbelink
Heterotic toriodal Z2xZ2 orbifolds may possess discrete torsion between the two defining orbifold twists in the form of additional cocycle factors in their one-loop partition funct…
Free fermionic webs of heterotic T-folds
Alon E. Faraggi, Stefan Groot Nibbelink, Benjamin Percival
Moduli stabilisation is key to obtaining phenomenologically viable string models. Non-geometric compactifications, like T-duality orbifolds (T-folds), are capable of freezing many…
The fate of discrete torsion on resolved heterotic Z2xZ2 orbifolds using (0,2) GLSMs
A. E. Faraggi, S. Groot Nibbelink, M. Hurtado-Heredia
This paper aims to shed light on what becomes of discrete torsion within heterotic orbifolds when they are resolved to smooth geometries. Gauged Linear Sigma Models (GLSMs) possess…
Taming Triangulation Dependence of T6/Z2xZ2 Resolutions
A. E. Faraggi, S. Groot Nibbelink, M. Hurtado-Heredia
Resolutions of certain toroidal orbifolds, like T6/Z2xZ2, are far from unique, due to triangulation dependence of their resolved local singularities. This leads to an explosion of…
Uncovering a Spinor-Vector Duality on a Resolved Orbifold
A. E. Faraggi, S. Groot Nibbelink, M. Hurtado-Heredia
Spinor-vector dualities have been established in various exact string realisations like orbifold and free fermionic constructions. This paper aims to investigate possibility of hav…
