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.…

Classification of Pati--Salam Asymmetric Heterotic String Orbifolds

Luke A. Detraux, Alon E. Faraggi, Benjamin Percival

We develop a systematic classification of asymmetric orbifold actions in Pati-Salam heterotic string vacua constructed in the free fermionic formulation. Starting fr…

Vacuum Energy of Non-Supersymmetric Heterotic String Models

Luke A. Detraux, Alonzo R. Diaz Avalos, Alon E. Faraggi +1

We use the free fermionic formulation of the heterotic-string in four dimensions to study the vacuum structure and energy of non-supersymmetric tachyon free models that correspond…

Vacuum Energy in Non-Supersymmetric Quasi-Realistic Heterotic-String Vacua with Fixed Moduli

Eman Basaad, Luke A. Detraux, Alonzo R. Diaz Avalos +2

Recently, Baykara, Tarazi and Vafa discussed the existence of quasicrystalline string vacua that contain a single neutral moduli, the dilaton, and studied compactifications of the…

D-term Uplifts in Non-Supersymmetric Heterotic String Models

Alonzo R. Diaz Avalos, Alon E. Faraggi, Viktor G. Matyas +1

Recently, we proposed that the one-loop tadpole diagram in perturbative non-supersymmetric heterotic string vacua that contain an anomalous symmetry, leads to an analog of t…

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…
