Free Fermionic Constructions of Heterotic Strings
Ioannis Florakis, John Rizos
This chapter is an introduction to the Free Fermionic Formulation of String Theory, with emphasis on heterotic model building. After a brief review of bosonization in two dimension…

Non-supersymmetric non-tachyonic heterotic vacua with reduced rank in various dimensions
Carlo Angelantonj, Ioannis Florakis, Giorgio Leone +1
We construct rigid non-supersymmetric heterotic vacua with reduced rank and no tachyons in six and four dimensions. These configurations are based on asymmetric orbifold compactifi…

A Lightning Introduction to String Theory
Carlo Angelantonj, Ioannis Florakis
We give a lightning introduction to critical string theory, including the 26-dimensional bosonic string, the 10-dimensional superstrings and heterotic strings with and without spac…
