Heterotic orbifold models are promising candidates for models with MSSM like spectra. But orbifolds only correspond to a special place in moduli space, the bigger picture is described by the moduli space of Calabi-Yau spaces. In this talk…
We consider the semilinear heat equation $$u_t-\Delta u=f(u) $$ for a large class of non scale invariant nonlinearities of the form $f(u)=u^pL(u)$, where $p>1$ is Sobolev subcritical and $L$ is a slowly varying function (which includes for…
We study the impact of topological phase transitions of the internal Calabi-Yau threefold on the space-time geometry of five-dimensional extremal black holes and black strings. For flop transitions and SU(2) gauge symmetry enhancement we…

For a solution $u$ to the Navier-Stokes equations in spatial dimension $n\geq3$ which blows up at a finite time $T>0$, we prove the blowup estimate ${\|u(t)\|}_{\dot{B}_{p,q}^{s_{p}+\epsilon}(\mathbb{R}^n)}\gtrsim_{\varphi,\epsilon,(p\vee…
The building blocks of 6d $(1,0)$ SCFTs include certain rank one theories with gauge group $G=SU(3),SO(8),F_4,E_{6,7,8}$. In this paper, we propose a universal recursion formula for the elliptic genera of all such theories. This formula is…
Localization properties of fields in compact extra dimensions are crucial ingredients for string model building, particularly in the framework of orbifold compactifications. Realistic models often require a slight deviation from the…
