We investigate a model that the Yukawa coupling form is constructed by two kinds of matrix (M_0 and M_1). For example, in the SO(10) GUT model, M_0 and M_1 are Yukawa couplings generated by the 10 and 126 Higgs scalars. We study how this…
A second-order Taylor series expansion of the free energy functional provides analytical expressions for the magnetic field dependence of the free energy and of the magnetization of ferrofluids, here modelled by dipolar Yukawa interaction…
We study an extended two-dimensional Shastry-Sutherland model in a magnetic field where besides the usual Heisenberg exchanges of the Shastry-Sutherland model two additional SU(2) invariant couplings are included. Perturbative continous…
We discuss an extention of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with the 4th and anti-4th generations which have $SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y$ invariant masses. Due to the the extra generations, all three running gauge couplings become…
Among $T^7/\Gamma$ orbifold compactifications of $M$-theory, we examine models containing the particle physics Standard Model in four-dimensional spacetimes, which appear as fixed subspaces of the ten-dimensional spacetimes at each end of…
We analyze the gauge coupling evolution in brane inspired models with $U(3) \times U(2) \times U(1)^N$ symmetry at the string scale. We restrict to the case of brane configurations with two and three abelian factors (N=2,3) and where only…
We study Matrix Quantum Mechanics on the Euclidean time orbifold $S_1/\mathbb{Z}_2$. Upon Wick rotation to Lorentzian time and taking the double-scaling limit this theory provides a toy model for a big-bang/big crunch universe in two…
Recently, the complete landscape of three-family supersymmetric Pati-Salam models from intersecting D6-branes on a type IIA $\mathbb{T}^6/(\mathbb{Z}_2\times \mathbb{Z}_2)$ orientifold has been enumerated consisting of 33 independent models…
We study the topological phase transitions induced by Coulomb engineering in three triangular-lattice Hubbard models $AB_2$, $AC_3$ and $B_2C_3$, each of which consists of two types of magnetic atoms with opposite magnetic moments. The…
Local SU(5) F-theory models lead naturally to Yukawa couplings for the third generation of quarks and leptons, but inducing Yukawas for the lighter generations has proven elusive. Corrections coming from gauge fluxes fail to generate the…
Gauge-Yukawa Unification (GYU) relates the gauge and Yukawa couplings, thereby going beyond the usual GUTs, and it is assumed that the GYU in the third fermion generation implies that its Yukawa couplings are of the same order as the…
We study the phase structure of four-dimensional N=1 super Yang-Mills theories realized on D6-branes wrapping the RP^3 of a Z_2 orbifold of the deformed conifold. The non-trivial fundamental group of RP^3 allows for the gauge group to be…
We examine a recently proposed class of integrable deformations to two-dimensional conformal field theories. These {\lambda}-deformations interpolate between a WZW model and the non-Abelian T-dual of a Principal Chiral Model on a group G…
I discuss the correspondence between realistic four dimensional free fermionic models and $Z_2\times Z_2$ orbifold compactification. %I illustrate this correspondence for one particular example. I discuss the properties of the $Z_2\times…
We provide a new class of Z_N x Z_M heterotic orbifolds on non-factorisable tori, whose boundary conditions are defined by Lie lattices. Generally, point groups of these orbifolds are generated by Weyl reflections and outer automorphisms of…
We study predictions of orbifold family unification models with $SU(9)$ gauge group on a six-dimensional space-time including the orbifold $T^2/Z_2$, and obtain relations among sfermion masses in the supersymmetric extension of models. The…
The ageing of the bond-disordered two-dimensional Ising model quenched to below its critical point is studied through the two-time autocorrelator and thermoremanent magnetization (TRM). The corresponding ageing exponents are determined. The…
We discuss how unification of the gauge, Higgs and (three chiral family) matter superfields can be realized from the compactification of a six dimensional supersymmetric SU(8) gauge theory over the orbifold R^4 x T^2/Z_3. The bulk gauge…
We review efforts in string model building, focusing on the heterotic orbifold compactifications. We survey how one can, starting from an explicit string theory, obtain models which resemble Nature. These models exhibit the standard model…
We study perturbative unitarity constraints on generic Yukawa interactions where the involved fields have arbitrary quantum numbers under an $\prod_i SU(N_i) \otimes U(1)$ group. We derive compact expressions for the bounds on the Yukawa…
