Standard Model bundles of the heterotic string
Gottfried Curio
We show how to construct supersymmetric three-generation models with gauge group and matter content of the Standard Model in the framework of non-simply-connected elliptically fibe…

Gaugino Condensation and Generation of Supersymmetric 3-Form Flux
G. L. Cardoso, G. Curio, G. Dall'Agata +1
We extend the linearised solution of Polchinski and Strassler describing the supergravity dual of the N=1* gauge theory. By analysing the equations of motion of type IIB supergravi…

De Sitter Vacua from Heterotic M-Theory
Melanie Becker, Gottfried Curio, Axel Krause
It is shown how metastable de Sitter vacua might arise from heterotic M-theory. The balancing of its two non-perturbative effects, open membrane instantons against gaugino condensa…
