Fluxes of representations #

i. Overview #

Associated with each matter curve Σ are G₄-fluxes and hypercharge fluxes.

For a given matter curve Σ, and a Standard Model representation R, these two fluxes contribute to the chiral index χ(R) of the representation (eq 17 of [1]).

The chiral index is equal to the difference the number of left-handed minus the number of right-handed fermions Σ leads to in the representation R. Thus, for example, if χ(R) = 0, then all fermions in the representation R arising from Σ arise in vector-like pairs, and can be given a mass term without the presence of a Higgs like-particle.

For a 10d representation matter curve the non-zero chiral indices can be parameterized in terms of two integers M : ℤ and N : ℤ. For the SM representation

Similarly, for the 5-bar representation matter curve the non-zero chiral indices can be likewise be parameterized in terms of two integers M : ℤ and N : ℤ. For the SM representation

If one wishes to put the condition of no chiral exotics in the spectrum, then we must ensure that the chiral indices above give the chiral content of the MSSM. These correspond to the following conditions:

  1. The two higgs Hu and Hd must arise from different 5d-matter curves. Otherwise they will give a μ-term.
  2. The matter curve containing Hu must give one anti-chiral (1,2)_{-1/2} and no (bar 3,1)_{1/3}. Thus N = -1 and M = 0.
  3. The matter curve containing Hd must give one chiral (1,2)_{-1/2} and no (bar 3,1)_{1/3}. Thus N = 1 and M = 0.
  4. We should have no anti-chiral (3,2)_{1/6} and anti-chiral (bar 3,1)_{-2/3}. Thus 0 ≤ M for all 10d-matter curves and 5d matter curves.
  5. For the 10d-matter curves we should have no anti-chiral (bar 3,1)_{-2/3} and no anti-chiral (1,1)_{1}. Thus -M ≤ NM for all 10d-matter curves.
  6. For the 5d-matter curves we should have no anti-chiral (1,2)_{-1/2} (the only anti-chiral one present is the one from Hu) and thus -M ≤ N for all 5d-matter curves.
  7. To ensure we have 3-families of fermions we must have that M = 3 and N = 0 for the matter 10d and 5bar matter curves, and in addition ∑ (M + N) = 3 for the matter 5d matter curves. See the conditions in equation 26 - 28 of [1].

ii. Key results #

The above theory is implemented by defining two data structures:

Note: Neither FluxesTen or FluxesFive are fundamental to the theory, they can be derived from other data structures.
