Minimal String Unification and Constraint on Hidden Sector

We examine whether a minimal string model possessing the same massless spectra as the MSSM can be obtained from $Z_4$, $Z_6$ and $Z_8$ orbifold constructions. Using an anomaly cancellation condition of the target space duality symmetry, we derive allowable values of a level $k_1$ of U(1)$_Y$ for the minimal string model on the orbifolds through computer analyses. We investigate threshold corrections of the gauge coupling constants of SU(3), SU(2) and U(1)$_Y$ and examine consistencies of the model with the LEP experiments. Further we investigate what kinds of hidden sectors are consistent with the minimal string models. Also their gauge coupling constants of the hidden groups are estimated. We discuss Yukawa couplings of the models.

Minimal String Model in $Z_4$, $Z_6$ and $Z_8$ Orbifold Constructions

We examine whether a minimal string model possessing the same massless spectra as the MSSM can be obtained from $Z_4$, $Z_6$ and $Z_8$ orbifold constructions. Using an anomaly cancellation condition of the target space duality symmetry, we derive allowable values of a level $k_1$ of U(1)$_Y$ for the minimal string model on the orbifolds through computer analyses. We investigate threshold corrections of the gauge coupling constants of SU(3), SU(2) and U(1)$_Y$ and examine consistencies of the model with the LEP experiments. It is found that $Z_4$ and $Z_8$-II can not derive the minimal string model but $Z_6$-I, $Z_6$-II and $Z_8$-I are possible to derive it with $13/12 \leq k_1\leq 41/30$, $16/15\leq k_1\leq 17/12$ and $1\leq k_1\leq 41/21$ respectively. The minimum values of the moduli on unrotated planes are estimated within the ranges of the levels.

Levels of U(1)y in Minimal String Model on Z(N)*Z(M) Orbifolds

We study a minimal string model possessing the same massless spectra as the MSSM on $Z_N\times Z_M$ orbifolds. Threshold corrections of the gauge coupling constants of SU(3), SU(2) and U(1)$_Y$ are investigated in a case of an overall modulus. Using computer analyses, we search ranges of levels of U(1)$_Y$ allowed by the LEP experiments. It is found that $Z_3\times Z_3$ can not derive the minimal string model for a $M_Z$ SUSY breaking scale. The minimum values of the overall moduli are estimated within the ranges of the levels.

Study of Minimal String Unification in $Z_8$ Orbifold Models

We study the construction of the minimal supersymmetric standard model from the $Z_8$ orbifold models. We use a target-space duality anomaly cancellation and a unification of gauge couplings as constraints. It is shown that some models obtained through a systematical search realize the unification of SU(3) and SU(2) coupling constants.
