Rigour and Rigidity: Systematics on particle physics D6-brane models on Z(2)xZ(6)
2014
We launch a systematic search for phenomenologically appealing string vacua with intersecting D-branes on the promising T6/Z(2)xZ(6)xOR orientifold with discrete torsion. The number of independent background lattices is reduced from six to two by new symmetries. The occurrence of USp(2N) and SO(2N) versus U(N) gauge groups is classified as well as D-branes without matter in the adjoint and/or symmetric representation. Supersymmetric fractional D6-branes allowing for RR tadpole cancellation are fully classified in terms of all possible values of the one complex structure modulus inherited from the underlying six-torus. We then systematically investigate the conditions for three particle gene…
The importance of being rigid: D6-brane model building on with discrete torsion
2013
Model building with rigid D6-branes on the Type IIA orientifold onT 6 =Z2 Z 0 with discrete torsion is considered. The systematic search for models of particle physics is signicantly reduced by proving new symmetries among dierent lattice orientations. Suitable rigid D6-branes without matter in adjoint and symmetric representations are classied, and SO(2N) and USp(2N) gauge factors on orientifold invariant D6-branes are distinguished in terms of their discrete Wilson line and displacement parameters. Constraints on the nonexistence of exotic matter prohibit global completions of local MSSM and leftright symmetric models, while globally dened supersymmetric Pati-Salam models are found. For t…
