Supersymmetric Intersecting D6-branes and Fluxes in Massive Type IIA String Theory

چکیده
We study N=1 supersymmetric four-dimensional solutions of massive Type IIA supergravity with intersecting D6-branes in the presence NS-NS three-form fluxes. We derive N=1 supersymmetry conditions for the D6-brane and flux configurations in an internal manifold X6 and derive the intrinsic torsion (or SU(3)-structure) related to the fluxes. In the absence of fluxes, N=1 supersymmetry implies that D6-branes wrap supersymmetric three-cycles of X6 that intersect at angles of SU(3) rotations and the geometry is deformed by SU(3)-structures. The presence of fluxes breaks the SU(3) structures to SU(2) and the D6-branes intersect at angles of SU(2) rotations; non-zero mass parameter corresponds to D8-branes which are orthogonal to the common cycle of all D6-branes. The anomaly inflow indicates that the gauge theory on intersecting (massive) D6-branes is not chiral. E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected].

Massive Type IIA String Theory
We study conditions on general fluxes of massive Type IIA supergravity that lead to four-dimensional backgrounds with N = 1 supersymmetry. We derive these conditions in the case of SU(3)as well as SU(2)-structures. SU(3)-structures imply that the internal space is constrained to be a nearly Kähler manifold with all the turned on fluxes, and the negative cosmological constant proportional to the...
متن کاملQuasi-Supersymmetric G Unification from Intersecting D6-Branes on Type IIA Orientifolds
We construct three quasi-supersymmetric G3 GUT models with S3 symmetry and gauge coupling unification from intersecting D6-branes on Type IIA orientifolds. The Standard Model fermions and Higgs doublets can be embedded into the bifundamental representations in these models, and there is no any other unnecessary massless representation. Especially in Model I with gauge group U(4)3, we just have ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Particle Physics from Intersecting D-Branes
We review recent progress that has been made in the study of particle physics implications from Type II string with intersecting D-branes. While in the past the focus was on deriving particle physics of four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric solutions of perturbative heterotic string, recent progress has focused on Type II string theory orientifold compactifications with D-branes. We describe exam...
متن کاملMSSM GUT String Vacua, Split Supersymmetry and Fluxes
We show that previous proposals to accommodate the MSSM with string theory N=0 non-supersymmetric compactifications coming from intersecting D6-branes may be made fully consistent with the cancellation of RR tadpoles. In this respect we present the first examples of non-supersymmetric string Pati-Salam model vacua with starting observable gauge group SU(4)c × SU(2)b × SU(2)c (SU(2) from Sp(2)’s...
متن کاملThree-family supersymmetric standardlike models from intersecting brane worlds.
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 the minimal supersymmetric standard model particles, the model contains right-handed neutrinos, a chiral (but anomaly-free) set of exotic multiplets, a...
