Compactifications of heterotic string theory on Generalized Calabi-Yau manifolds have been expected to give the same type of flexibility that type IIB compactifications on Calabi-Yau orientifolds have. In this note we generalize the work…

Let $X$ be a K\"ahler manifold which is fibered over a complex manifold $Y$ such that every fiber is a Calabi-Yau manifold. Let $\omega$ be a fixed K\"ahler form on $X$. By Yau's theorem, there exists a unique Ricci-flat K\"ahler form…
