The Flavor of Non-Abelian Orbifolds
Miguel Hernandez-Segura, Xiang-Gan Liu, Ricardo Perez-Martinez +1
In string model building, flavor symmetries can arise from the geometric features of the compactification space. In the case of heterotic orbifold models, modular and traditional f…

Rolling with modular symmetry: quintessence and de Sitter in heterotic orbifolds
Hansel Gordillo-Ruiz, Miguel Hernandez-Segura, Ignacio Portillo-Castillo +2
Modular invariance is a fundamental symmetry in string compactifications, constraining both the structure of the effective theory and the dynamics of moduli and matter fields. It h…
