Quasi--realistic heterotic-string models in the free fermionic formulation typically contain an anomalous U(1), which gives rise to a Fayet-Iliopolous term that breaks supersymmetry at the one--loop level in string perturbation theory.…

We investigate the possibility of large CP- violating phases in the soft breaking terms derived in superstring models. The bounds on the electric dipole moments (EDM's) of the electron and neutron are satisfied through cancellations…

For the weakly coupled heterotic string (WCHS) there is a well-known factor of twenty conflict between the minimum string coupling unification scale, Lambda_H ~5x10^(17) GeV, and the projected MSSM unification scale, Lambda_U ~ 2.5x10^(16)…

We review recent progress in embedding the supersymmetric standard model into string theory. We discuss how, with the incorporation of certain aspects of grand unification, a search strategy can be developed that allows to efficiently find…

An algorithm to systematically and efficiently generate free fermionic heterotic string models was recently introduced. This algorithm has been adopted by the Free Fermionic Model Construction (FFMC) program at Baylor University. As its…

We establish a symmetry map which relates two low-energy heterotic string theories with different numbers of the Abelian gauge fields compactified from the diverse to three dimensions on a torus. We discuss two applications of the…

The derived modular invariant one-loop string effective coupling constant has been used to discuss the weak scale measurement constraints on minimal superstring models, minimal SUSY left-right string models and minimal left-right SUSY…

Following a recent conjecture by Lapan, Simons and Strominger, we revisit and discuss an intrinsically heterotic class of conformal field theories, emphasizing their Lagrangian construction as asymmetrically gauged WZW models, which may be…

Additional Abelian gauge interactions are generic to string compactifications. In heterotic string models, gauge coupling unification of such forces and other gauge interactions is natural due to their common origin. In this letter we study…

Spinor--Vector Duality (SVD) has been observed in worldsheet constructions of heterotic--string compactifications. Recently, its realisation in the effective field theory limit of string vacua in six and five dimensions has been…

The only allowed Higgs superpotential term at stringy tree level in the string derived Singlet Extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (SEMSSM) is h S H_d H_u, which leads to an additional global U(1) symmetry in the Higgs…

Some versions of the electroweak SU(3)$_L\otimesU(1)_X$ models cannot be treated within perturbation theory at energies of few TeV. An extended version for these models is proposed which is perturbative even at TeV scale posing no…

The weakly coupled vacuum of $E_8\otimes E_8$ heterotic string theory remains an attractive scenario for phenomenolgy and cosmology. The particle spectrum is reviewed and the issues of gauge coupling unification, dilaton stabilization and…

We analyse soft supersymmetry breaking in type IIB de Sitter string vacua after moduli stabilisation, focussing on models in which the Standard Model is sequestered from the supersymmetry breaking sources and the spectrum of soft-terms is…

We continue the investigation of the physics implications of a class of flat directions for a prototype quasi-realistic free fermionic string model (CHL5), building upon the results of the previous paper in which the complete mass spectrum…

We report on the construction of four-dimensional string vacua by considering general abelian and non-abelian bundles on an internal Calabi-Yau for both heterotic theories. The structure of the resulting gauge sector is extremely rich and…

A consistent theoretical description of physics at high energies requires an assessment of vacuum stability in either the Standard Model or any extension of it. Especially supersymmetric extensions allow for several vacua and the choice of…

We discuss the construction of heterotic--string models that allow for the existence of an extra $Z^\prime$ at low scales. One of the main difficulties encountered is that the desired symmetries tend to be anomalous in the prevailing three…

We present three lectures on heterotic M-theory and a fourth lecture extending this theory to more general orbifolds. In Lecture 1, Horava-Witten theory is briefly discussed. We then compactify this theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds, choosing…

A new formalism for construction of the stationary solutions is developed for the four-dimensional gravity coupled to the dilaton, Kalb-Ramond and two Maxwell fields in a low-energy heterotic string theory form. The result of generation is…
