TLDR
In this paper, the authors performed an extensive search for SM-like models from the nonsupersymmetric heterotic string and found more than 170 000 inequivalent string models from 138 Abelian toroidal orbifolds.Abstract:
Leptoquarks extending the Standard Model (SM) have attracted increased attention in the recent literature. Hence, the identification of four-dimensional (4D) SM-like models and the classification of allowed leptoquarks from strings is an important step in the study of string phenomenology. We perform the most extensive search for SM-like models from the nonsupersymmetric heterotic string $\mathrm{SO}(16)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\mathrm{SO}(16)$, resulting in more than 170 000 inequivalent promising string models from 138 Abelian toroidal orbifolds. We explore the 4D massless particle spectra of these models in order to identify all exotics beside the three generations of quarks and leptons. Hereby, we learn which leptoquark can be realized in this string setup. Moreover, we analyze the number of SM Higgs doublets which is generically larger than one. Then, we identify SM-like models with a minimal particle content. These so-called almost SM models appear most frequently in the orbifold geometries ${\mathbb{Z}}_{2}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{\mathbb{Z}}_{4}(2,4)$ and (1,6). Finally, we apply machine learning to our data set in order to predict the orbifold geometry where a given particle spectrum is most likely to be found.read more

Spinor-Vector Duality and BSM Phenomenology
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the construction of non-supersymmetric sting vacua and modular maps similar to the spacetime supersymmetry map, which provide a glimpse into the enormous symmetry structure underlying the entire space of perturbative string vacua that is yet to be uncovered.

Higgs-portal dark matter from nonsupersymmetric strings
TL;DR: In this article , the authors explore realizations of such Higgs portals in promising heterotic orbifold models without supersymmetry, and find that a sample model includes Higgs vacua that are stable at one-loop, in which the Higgs sector is compatible with particle-physics observations and a scalar can account for the measured dark matter abundance.

Super No-Scale Models with Pati-Salam Gauge Group
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct and classify heterotic models where N = 1 supersymmetry is spontaneously broken, a la Scherk-Schwarz, by imposing Bose-Fermi degeneracy at the massless level, known as the super no-scale condition.
