D-Branes at Singularities : A Bottom-Up Approach to the String Embedding of the Standard Model
TL;DR: In this paper, a bottom-up approach to the building of particle physics models from string theory is proposed, where the building blocks are Type II D-branes which are combined appropriately to reproduce desirable features of a particle theory model: 1) Chirality ; 2) Standard Model group ; 3) N = 1 orN = 0 supersymmetry ; 4) Three quark-lepton generations.
Journal ArticleDOI
D=4 chiral string compactifications from intersecting branes
TL;DR: In this article, the construction of four-dimensional chiral gauge theories was studied by considering configurations of type II D(3+n)-branes wrapped on nontrivial n-cycles on T2n×(R2(3−n)/ZN), for n = 1, 2, 3, 4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intersecting brane worlds
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a string scenario in which different SM gauge interactions propagate on different (intersecting) brane worlds, partially wrapped in the extra dimensions, and the models are non-supersymmetric but the string scale may be lowered down to 1-10 TeV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double field theory: a pedagogical review
TL;DR: Double field theory (DFT) as discussed by the authors is a generalization of string theory that incorporates T-duality as a symmetry of a field theory defined on a double configuration space.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effective action of double field theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized Scherk-Schwarz dimensional reduction of Double Field Theory on a twisted double torus was performed, and the four dimensional effective action was shown to exactly reproduce the bosonic electric sector of gauged N = 4 supergravity.
