Classical Weight-Four L-value Ratios as Sums of Calabi--Yau Invariants
Philip Candelas, Xenia de la Ossa, Joseph McGovern
We revisit the series solutions of the attractor equations of 4d N=2 supergravities obtained by Calabi--Yau compactifications previously studied in Candelas, Kuusela, and McGovern…
Local Zeta Functions of Multiparameter Calabi-Yau Threefolds from the Picard-Fuchs Equations
Philip Candelas, Xenia de la Ossa, Pyry Kuusela
The deformation approach of arXiv:2104.07816 for computing zeta functions of one-parameter Calabi-Yau threefolds is generalised to cover also multiparameter manifolds. Consideratio…
Flux Vacua and Modularity for Symmetric Calabi-Yau Manifolds
Philip Candelas, Xenia de la Ossa, Pyry Kuusela +1
We find continuous families of supersymmetric flux vacua in IIB Calabi-Yau compactifications for multiparameter manifolds with an appropriate symmetry. We argue, sup…
Holomorphic Yukawa Couplings in Heterotic String Theory
Stefan Blesneag
This thesis is concerned with heterotic E8 x E8 string models that can produce quasirealistic N = 1 supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model in the low-energy limit. We star…
Mirror Symmetry for Five-Parameter Hulek-Verrill Manifolds
Philip Candelas, Xenia de la Ossa, Pyry Kuusela +1
We study the mirrors of five-parameter Calabi-Yau threefolds first studied by Hulek and Verrill in the context of observed modular behaviour of the zeta functions for Calabi-Yau ma…
Local Zeta Functions From Calabi-Yau Differential Equations
Philip Candelas, Xenia de la Ossa, Duco van Straten
The zeta-function of a manifold is closely related to, and sometimes can be calculated completely, in terms of its periods. We report here on a practical and computationally rapid…
