Asymmetric $\mathbb{Z}_4$ orbifolds of type IIB string theory revisited

High Energy Physics - Theory 2024-11-08 v2

Abstract

We construct freely acting asymmetric Z4\mathbb{Z}_4 orbifolds of type IIB string theory on T5T^5 preserving 24,16 or 8 supercharges in five dimensions. We show that these models are well-defined if the SO(8) lattice is chosen, instead of the SU(2)4^4 lattice, which was previously considered in the literature.
