We study geometric aspects of extensions of the supersymmetric standard model that exhibit a periodic duality cascade. Via the holographic correspondence, the growth of the gauge group rank towards the UV is interpreted as a gradual…
We investigate a D-brane system in which spontaneous gauge symmetry breaking occurs. The system consists of four D3-branes and three anti-D7-branes at C^3/Z_3 singularity. The singularity is blown up by vacuum expectation values of the…
We show that configurations of multiple D-branes related by SU(N) rotations will preserve unbroken supersymmetry. This includes cases in which two D-branes are related by a rotation of arbitrarily small angle, and we discuss some of the…
We study the five dimensional SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times U(1)_X gauge theory (3-3-1 Model) in which the gauge symmetry is broken down through orbifold compactification to four dimensions. The new model has several distinguishing features…
This paper studies the compatibility of having a grand unification scheme for particle physics, while at the same time having a perturbative string theory description of such a scheme on a D-brane. This is studied in a model independent…
We describe the construction of configurations of D6-branes wrapped on compact 3-cycles intersecting at points in non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds. Such constructions provide local models of intersecting brane worlds, and describe sectors…
The success of SU(5)-like gauge coupling unification boundary conditions $g_3^2=g_2^2=5/3 g_1^2$ has biased most attempts to embed the SM interactions into a unified structure. After discussing the limitations of the orthodox approach, we…
We systematically search intersecting D-brane models, which just realize the Standard Model chiral matter contents and gauge symmetry. We construct new classes of non-supersymmetric Standard Model-like models. We also study gauge coupling…
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,…
We construct six stack D6-brane vacua (non-supersymmetric) that have at low energy exactly the standard model (with right handed neutrinos). The construction is based on D6-branes intersecting at angles in $D = 4$ type toroidal orientifolds…
In this note we explore the possibility of obtaining gauge bosons and fermionic spectrum as close as possible to the Standard Model content, by placing D3-branes at a ZN orbifold-like singularity in the presence of D7-branes. Indeed, we…
We derive D-brane gauge theories for C^3/Z_n x Z_n orbifolds with discrete torsion and study the moduli space of a D-brane at a point. We show that, as suggested in previous work, closed string moduli do not fully resolve the singularity,…
We consider freely acting orbifold compactifications, which interpolate in two possible decompactification limits between the supersymmetric type II string and the non-supersymmetric type 0 string. In particular we discuss how D-branes are…
We discuss the phenomenology and cosmology of a Standard-like Model inspired by string theory, in which the gauge fields are localized on D-branes wrapping certain compact cycles on an underlying geometry, whose intersection can give rise…
We give a concise geometric recipe for constructing D-brane gauge theories that exhibit metastable SUSY breaking. We present two simple examples in terms of branes at deformed CY singularities.
In this highly speculative note we conjecture that it may be possible to understand features of coincident D-branes, such as the appearance of enhanced non-abelian gauge symmetry, in a purely geometric fashion, using a form of geometry…
We briefly describe a three-family intersecting D6-brane model in Type IIA theory on the T^6/(Z_2 x Z_2) orientifold with a realistic phenomenology. In this model, the gauge symmetry can be broken down to the Standard Model (SM) gauge…
The properties of the D-brane fluctuations are investigated using the two types of deformation of the Dirac structure, based on the B-transformation and the beta-transformation, respectively. The former gives the standard gauge theory with…
We study symmetry breaking effects in local D-brane models that arise as a result of compactification, taking models constructed on C^3/Z_3 as prototype. Zero-modes of the Lichnerowicz operator in cone-like geometries have a power law…
We construct the first three family N=1 supersymmetric string model with Standard Model gauge group SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y from an orientifold of type IIA theory on T^6/(Z_2 x Z_2) and D6-branes intersecting at angles. In addition to…
