Compact heterotic orbifolds in blow-up
Stefan Groot Nibbelink, Denis Klevers, Felix Ploger +2
We compare heterotic string models on orbifolds with supergravity models on smooth compact spaces, obtained by resolving the orbifold singularities. Our main focus is on heterotic…
Mirage Torsion
Felix Ploger, Saul Ramos-Sanchez, Michael Ratz +1
Z_NxZ_M orbifold models admit the introduction of a discrete torsion phase. We find that models with discrete torsion have an alternative description in terms of torsionless models…
Stringy origin of non-Abelian discrete flavor symmetries
Tatsuo Kobayashi, Hans Peter Nilles, Felix Plöger +2
We study the origin of non-Abelian discrete flavor symmetries in superstring theory. We classify all possible non-Abelian discrete flavor symmetries which can appear in heterotic o…
