When Rational Sections Become Cyclic: Gauge Enhancement in F-theory via Mordell--Weil Torsion
Florent Baume, Mirjam Cvetic, Craig Lawrie +1
We explore novel gauge enhancements from abelian to non-simply-connected gauge groups in F-theory. To this end we consider complex structure deformations of elliptic fibrations wit…

The Global Gauge Group Structure of F-theory Compactification with U(1)s
Mirjam Cvetic, Ling Lin
We show that F-theory compactifications with abelian gauge factors generally exhibit a non-trivial global gauge group structure. The geometric origin of this structure lies with th…
