Calabi Yau Manifolds

Abstract In this work we study ten-dimensional solutions to type IIA string theory of the form AdS4 × X6 which contain orientifold planes and preserve $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 1 supersymmetry. In particular, we consider solutions which exhibit some key features of the four-dimensional DGKT proposal for compactifications on Calabi-Yau manifolds with fluxes, and in this sense may be considered their ten-dimensional uplifts. We focus on the supersymmetry equations and Bianchi identities, and find solutions to these that are valid at the two-derivative level and at first order in an expansion parameter which is related to the AdS cosmological constant. This family of solutions is such that the background metric is deformed from the Ricci-flat one to one exhibiting SU(3) × SU(3)-structure, and dilaton gradients and warp factors are induced.

Calabi Yau Manifolds

Abstract The systematic program of heterotic line bundle model building has resulted in a wealth of standard-like models (SLM) for particle physics. In this paper, we continue this work in the setting of generalised Complete Intersection Calabi Yau (gCICY) manifolds. Using the gCICYs constructed in ref. [1], we identify two geometries that, when combined with line bundle sums, are directly suitable for heterotic GUT models. We then show that these gCICYs admit freely acting ℤ2 symmetry groups, and are thus amenable to Wilson line breaking of the GUT gauge group to that of the standard model. We proceed to a systematic scan over line bundle sums over these geometries, that result in 99 and 33 SLMs, respectively. For the first class of models, our results may be compared to line bundle models on homotopically equivalent Complete Intersection Calabi Yau manifolds. This shows that the number of realistic configurations is of the same order of magnitude.

Complete Form

I construct classical superextensions of the Virasoro algebra by employing the Ward identities of a linearly realized subalgebra. For the N = 4 superconformal algebra, this subalgebra is generated by the N = 2 U (1) supercurrent and a spin 0 N = 2 superfield. I show that this structure can be extended to an N = 4 super W3 algebra, and give the complete form of this algebra.

Zero Curvature

Starting from superdifferential operators in an N=1 superfield formulation, we present a systematic prescription for the derivation of classical N=1 and N=2 super W algebras by imposing a zero-curvature condition on the connection of the corresponding first-order system. We illustrate the procedure on the first nontrivial example (beyond the N=1 superconformal algebra) and also comment on the relation with the Gelfand-Dickey construction of W algebras.

Coset Models

Bosonic representations of N=2 superconformal algebra are studied. We show that the free energy momentum tensor decomposes into an orthogonal sum of the interacting bosonic model (IBM) and a coset-like tensors. We define the notion of flags of models and show that the central charge does not decrease along the flags. We examine the conditions for an arbitrary un-oriented graph to form an IBM. We discuss several properties of the chiral algebra of these models and examine the role of the continuous parameters by studying an example. Finally we discuss the relations between these models and the N=2 superconformal coset models.
