Effective Supergravity from Heterotic M–Theory and its Phenomenological Implications
In this talk I summarize several recent results concerning the four–dimensional effective supergravity obtained using a Calabi–Yau compactification of the E8×E8 heterotic string fromM–theory. A simple macroscopic study is provided expanding the theory in powers of two dimensionless variables. Higher order terms in the Kähler potential are identified and matched with the heterotic string correct...
متن کاملThe Isometries of Low-Energy Heterotic M-Theory
We study the effective D = 4, N = 1 supergravity description of five-dimensional heterotic M-theory in the presence of an M5 brane, and derive the Killing vectors and isometry group for the Kähler moduli-space metric. The group is found to be a non-semisimple maximal parabolic subgroup of Sp(4,R), containing a non-trivial SL(2,R) factor. The underlying moduli-space is then naturally realised as...
متن کاملFour-Dimensional Effective Supergravity and Soft Terms in M–Theory
We provide a simple macroscopic analysis of the four-dimensional effective supergravity of the Hořava-Witten M -theory which is expanded in powers of κ2/3/ρV 1/3 and κ2/3ρ/V 2/3 where κ2, V and ρ denote the eleven-dimensional gravitational coupling, the Calabi-Yau volume and the eleventh length respectively. Possible higher order terms in the Kähler potential are identified and matched with the...
متن کاملDerivative F-Terms from Heterotic M-Theory Five-brane Instantons
We study non-perturbative effects due to a heterotic M-theory five-brane wrapped on Calabi-Yau threefold. We show that such instantons contribute to derivative Fterms described recently by Beasley and Witten rather than to the superpotential.
متن کاملOn Low-Energy Theory from General Supergravity
Starting from non-minimal supergravity theory with unified gauge symmetry, we obtain the low-energy effective theory by taking the flat limit and integrating out the superheavy fields in a model-independent manner. The scalar potential has extra non-universal contributions to soft supersymmetry breaking terms which can give an impact on phenomenological study. 1 Talk presented at YKIS’95, Kyoto...
