We construct two more supersymmetric E6 grand unified models with three generations within the framework of Z12 asymmetric orbifold compactification of the heterotic string theory. Such an asymmetric orbifold is missing in the…
The trinification model is an interesting extension of the Standard Model (SM) based on the gauge group $SU(3)_C\times SU(3)_L\times SU(3)_R$. We study its low-energy phenomenology by constructing a low-energy effective field theory,…
This work considers the remarkable suggestion that the three families of quarks and leptons may be unified, together with the Higgs and gauge fields of the Standard Model (SM), into a single "particle", namely the $\textbf{248}$ vector…
In a previous paper, we introduced a heterotic standard model and discussed its basic properties. This vacuum has the spectrum of the MSSM with one additional pair of Higgs-Higgs conjugate fields and a small number of uncharged moduli. In…
We revisit the question of gauge coupling unification at the string scale in orbifold compactifications of the heterotic string for the supersymmetric Standard Model. In the presence of discrete Wilson lines threshold corrections with…
We apply the Renormalisation Group Evolution (RGE) to analyze the phenomenological implications of an extended supersymmetric model, for the value of the unification scale and the strong coupling at the electroweak scale. The model we…
An ansatz, Det. $M_{\tilde H}=0,$ for the Higgsino mass matrix in string orbifold trinification is suggested toward the minimal supersymmetric standard model(MSSM). Small instanton solutions effective around the GUT scale can fulfil this…
We review the construction and classification of three-family grand unified models within the framework of asymmetric orbifolds in perturbative heterotic superstring. We give a detailed survey of all such models which is organized to aid…
Recently J. Giedt discussed a mechanism, entitled optical unification, whereby string scale unification is facilitated via exotic matter with intermediate scale mass. This mechanism guarantees that a virtual MSSM unification below the…
I argue that the ten dimensional non--supersymmetric tachyonic superstrings may serve as good starting points for the construction of viable phenomenological vacua. Thus, enlarging the space of possible solutions that may address some of…
This paper summarizes several developments in string-derived (Minimal Supersymmetric) Standard Models. Part one reviews the first string model containing solely the three generations of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and a single…
Recently in connection with Superstring theory E_8 and E_6 unifications became very promising. In the present paper we have investigated a number of available paths from the Standard Model (SM) to the E_6 unification, considering a chain of…
In this work, we present a trinification-based grand unified theory incorporating a global $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ family symmetry that after a spontaneous breaking leads to a left-right symmetric model. Already at the classical level, this model…
We investigate asymmetric orbifold models constructed from non-supersymmetric heterotic strings. We systematically classify the asymmetric orbifold models with standard embeddings and present a list of asymmetric orbifolds which are…
Assuming that the Standard Model of particle physics arises from the $E_8\times E_8$ Heterotic String Theory, we try to solve the discrepancy between the unification scale predicted by this theory ($\approx g_{GUT}\times 5.27\cdot 10^{17}$…
We search for supersymmetric standard model realizations with extra singlets and extra $ U(1)$ using the heterotic string compactification on the $ Z_{6-II}$ orbifold with two Wilson lines. We analyze the vacuum restabilization mechanism…
A three-family non-supersymmetric model with U(3)^3 gauge symmetry is analyzed in the context of intersecting D-branes. This is equivalent to the `trinification' model extended by three U(1) factors which survive as global symmetries in the…
A compactification of the E_8 x E_8 heterotic string on a Z_2 x Z_2 orbifold equipped with an additional freely acting involution is presented. This model reproduces the exact chiral MSSM spectrum with matter parity and a non-trivial Yukawa…
The goal of identifying the Standard Model of particle physics and its extensions within string theory has been one of the principal driving forces in string phenomenology. Recently, the incorporation of artificial intelligence in string…
In this paper we discuss the issues of supersymmetry breaking and moduli stabilization within the context of E_8 x E_8 heterotic orbifold constructions and, in particular, we focus on the class of "mini-landscape" models. In the…
