Abstract

We study the moduli stabilization from the viewpoint of modular flavor symmetries. We systematically analyze stabilized moduli values in possible configurations of flux compactifications, investigating probabilities of moduli values and showing which moduli values are favorable from our moduli stabilization. Then, we examine their implications on modular symmetric flavor models. It is found that distributions of complex structure modulus τ\tau determining the flavor structure are clustered at a fixed point with the residual Z3\mathbb{Z}_3 symmetry in the SL(2,Z)SL(2,\mathbb{Z}) fundamental region. Also, they are clustered at other specific points such as intersecting points between τ2=k/2|\tau|^2=k/2 and Reτ=0,±1/4,±1/2{\rm Re}\,\tau=0,\pm 1/4, \pm1/2, although their probabilities are less than the Z3\mathbb{Z}_3 fixed point. In general, CP-breaking vacua in the complex structure modulus are statistically disfavored in the string landscape. Among CP-breaking vacua, the values Reτ=±1/4{\rm Re}\,\tau=\pm 1/4 are most favorable in particular when the axio-dilaton SS is stabilized at ReS=±1/4{\rm Re}\,S=\pm 1/4. That shows a strong correlation between CP phases originated from string moduli.
