Siegel modular flavor group and CP from string theory
Alexander Baur, Moritz Kade, Hans Peter Nilles +2
We derive the potential modular symmetries of heterotic string theory. For a toroidal compactification with Wilson line modulus, we obtain the Siegel modular group $\mathrm{Sp}(4,\…
Eclectic flavor scheme from ten-dimensional string theory -- II. Detailed technical analysis
Hans Peter Nilles, Saúl Ramos-Sánchez, Patrick K. S. Vaudrevange
String theory leads to a flavor scheme where modular symmetries play a crucial role. Together with the traditional flavor symmetries they combine to an eclectic flavor group, which…
The eclectic flavor symmetry of the orbifold
Alexander Baur, Moritz Kade, Hans Peter Nilles +2
Modular symmetries naturally combine with traditional flavor symmetries and , giving rise to the so-called eclectic flavor symmetry. We apply this scheme to the two-d…
Eclectic flavor scheme from ten-dimensional string theory -- I. Basic results
Hans Peter Nilles, Saul Ramos-Sanchez, Patrick K. S. Vaudrevange
In a consistent top-down approach based on orbifold compactifications, modular and traditional flavor symmetries combine nontrivially to the so-called eclectic flavor symmetry. We…
Lessons from eclectic flavor symmetries
Hans Peter Nilles, Saul Ramos-Sanchez, Patrick K. S. Vaudrevange
A top-down approach to the flavor problem motivated from string theory leads to the concept of eclectic flavor groups that combine traditional and modular flavor symmetries. To mak…
Predicting the orbifold origin of the MSSM
Erik Parr, Patrick K. S. Vaudrevange, Martin Wimmer
MSSM-like string models from the compactification of the heterotic string on toroidal orbifolds (of the kind ) have distinct phenomenological properties, like the spectrum o…
