Heterotic Orbifold Models
Saul Ramos-Sanchez, Michael Ratz
We review efforts in string model building, focusing on the heterotic orbifold compactifications. We survey how one can, starting from an explicit string theory, obtain models whic…
Matter matters in moduli fixing and modular flavor symmetries
Victor Knapp-Perez, Xiang-Gan Liu, Hans Peter Nilles +2
Modular flavor symmetries provide us with a very compelling approach to the flavor problem. It has been argued that moduli values close to some special values like or p…
Neutrino Flavor Model Building and the Origins of Flavor and CP Violation: A Snowmass White Paper
Yahya Almumin, Mu-Chun Chen, Murong Cheng +6
The neutrino sector offers one of the most sensitive probes of new physics beyond the Standard Model of Particle Physics. The mechanism of neutrino mass generation is still unknown…
Generation flow in field theory and strings
Saul Ramos-Sanchez, Michael Ratz, Yuri Shirman +2
Nontrivial strong dynamics often leads to the appearance of chiral composites. In phenomenological applications, these can either play the role of Standard Model particles or lift…
Quasi-Eclectic Modular Flavor Symmetries
Mu-Chun Chen, Victor Knapp-Perez, Mario Ramos-Hamud +3
Modular flavor symmetries provide us with a new, promising approach to the flavor problem. However, in their original formulation the kinetic terms of the standard model fields do…
Efficient sampling of constrained high-dimensional theoretical spaces with machine learning
Jacob Hollingsworth, Michael Ratz, Philip Tanedo +1
Models of physics beyond the Standard Model often contain a large number of parameters. These form a high-dimensional space that is computationally intractable to fully explore. Ex…
