Massive modes on magnetized blow-up manifold of $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_N$

We study massive modes on a magnetized blow-up manifold of $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_N$. The blow-up manifold can be constructed by appropriately replacing orbifold singular points with a part of $S^2$. To ensure a smooth connection between the massive modes on magnetized $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_N$ orbifold and those on magnetized $S^2$, it is required that not only the total magnetic flux as well as the total curvature but also the effective magnetic flux on the connected line remain invariant under the blow-up procedure. Furthermore, we find that the number of the localized modes at each orbifold singular point increases by one for each unit increment of the mass level.

Modular weights of wave functions on magnetized torus

We study the origin of modular weights of wave functions in magnetized $T^{2}$ models. It is explicitly demonstrated that the modular weights of the wave functions on magnetized $T^2$ is equivalent to their mass level. We further extend this result to magnetized $T^{2g}$ models. As a result, we construct the wave functions of excited states in magnetized $T^{2g}$ models and show that their modular weights are likewise equivalent to the corresponding mass levels.

Modular symmetry of localized modes

We study the modular symmetry of localized modes on fixed points of $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold. First, we find that the localized modes with even (odd) modular weight generally have $Δ(6n^2)$ ($Δ'(6n^2)$) modular flavor symmetry. Moreover, when we consider an additional Ansatz, the localized modes with even (odd) modular weight generally enjoy $S_3$ ($S'_4$) modular flavor symmetry, and we show the concrete wave functions of the localized modes.

$Sp(6,Z)$ modular symmetry in flavor structures: quark flavor models and Siegel modular forms for $\widetildeΔ(96)$

We study an approach to construct Siegel modular forms from $Sp(6,Z)$. Zero-mode wave functions on $T^6$ with magnetic flux background behave Siegel modular forms at the origin. Then $T$-symmetries partially break depending on the form of background magnetic flux. We study the background such that three $T$-symmetries $T_I$, $T_{II}$ and $T_{III}$ as well as the $S$-symmetry remain.Consequently, we obtain Siegel modular forms with three moduli parameters $(ω_1,ω_2,ω_3)$, which are multiplets of finite modular groups. We show several examples. As one of examples, we study Siegel modular forms for $\widetildeΔ(96)$ in detail. Then, as a phenomenological applicantion, we study quark flavor models using Siegel modular forms for $\widetildeΔ(96)$. Around the cusp, $ω_1=i\infty$, the Siegel modular forms have hierarchical values depending on their $T_I$-charges. We show the deviation of $ω_1$ from the cusp can generate large quark mass hierarchies without fine-tuning. Furthermore CP violation is induced by deviation of $ω_2$ from imaginary axis.

Modular symmetry in magnetized $T^{2g}$ torus and orbifold models

We study the modular symmetry in magnetized $T^{2g}$ torus and orbifold models. The $T^{2g}$ torus has the modular symmetry $Γ_{g}=Sp(2g,\mathbb{Z})$. Magnetic flux background breaks the modular symmetry to a certain normalizer $N_{g}(H)$. We classify remaining modular symmetries by magnetic flux matrix types. Furthermore, we study the modular symmetry for wave functions on the magnetized $T^{2g}$ and certain orbifolds. It is found that wave functions on magnetized $T^{2g}$ as well as its orbifolds behave as the Siegel modular forms of weight $1/2$ and $\widetilde{N}_{g}(H,h)$, which is the metapletic congruence subgroup of the double covering group of $N_{g}(H)$, $\widetilde{N}_{g}(H)$. Then, wave functions transform non-trivially under the quotient group, $\widetilde{N}_{g,h}=\widetilde{N}_{g}(H)/\widetilde{N}_{g}(H,h)$, where the level $h$ is related to the determinant of the magnetic flux matrix. Accordingly, the corresponding four-dimensional (4D) chiral fields also transform non-trivially under $\widetilde{N}_{g,h}$ modular flavor transformation with modular weight $-1/2$. We also study concrete modular flavor symmetries of wave functions on magnetized $T^{2g}$ orbifolds.

Quark mass hierarchies and CP violation in $A_4\times A_4\times A_4$ modular symmetric flavor models

We study $A_4 \times A_4 \times A_4$ modular symmetric flavor models to realize quark mass hierarchies and mixing angles without fine-tuning. Mass matrices are written in terms of modular forms. At modular fixed points $τ= i\infty$ and $ω$, $A_4$ is broken to $Z_3$ residual symmetry. When the modulus $τ$ is deviated from the fixed points, modular forms show hierarchies depending on their residual charges. Thus, we obtain hierarchical structures in mass matrices. Since we begin with $A_4\times A_4 \times A_4$, the residual symmetry is $Z_3 \times Z_3 \times Z_3$ which can generate sufficient hierarchies to realize quark mass ratios and absolute values of the CKM matrix $|V_{\textrm{CKM}}|$ without fine-tuning. Furthermore, CP violation is studied. We present necessary conditions for CP violation caused by the value of $τ$. We also show possibilities to realize observed values of the Jarlskog invariant $J_{\textrm{CP}}$, quark mass ratios and CKM matrix $|V_{\textrm{CKM}}|$ simultaneously, if $\mathcal{O}(10)$ adjustments in coefficients of Yukawa couplings are allowed.

Number of zero-modes on magnetized $T^4/Z_N$ orbifolds analyzed by modular transformation

We study fermion zero-mode wavefunctions on $T^4/Z_N$ orbifold with background magnetic fluxes. The number of zero-modes is analyzed by use of $Sp(4,\mathbb{Z})$ modular transformation. Conditions needed to realize three generation models are clarified. We also study parity transformation in the compact space which leads to better understanding of relationship between positive and negative chirality wavefunctions.

Three-generation solutions of equations of motion in heterotic supergravity

We study the generation number of massless fermions in compactifications recently found in heterotic supergravity. The internal spaces are products of two-dimensional spaces of constant curvature, and the standard embedding is not assumed. The generation number is constrained by the equations of motion and the Bianchi identity. In the case that the Euler characteristics of the three internal submanifolds are $(2,-2,-2)$, the generation number is three or less. We also show that three-generation solutions exist for arbitrary Euler characteristics of the negatively curved 2-manifolds, and we present some explicit solutions.

Zero-modes in magnetized $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_N$ orbifold models through $Sp(6,\mathbb{Z})$ modular symmetry

We study of fermion zero-modes on magnetized $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_N$ orbifolds. In particular, we focus on non-factorizable orbifolds, i.e. $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_7$ and $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_{12}$ corresponding to $SU(7)$ and $E_6$ Lie lattices respectively. The number of degenerated zero-modes corresponds to the generation number of low energy effective theory in four dimensional space-time. We find that three-generation models preserving 4D $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetry can be realized by magnetized $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_{12}$, but not by $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_7$. We use $Sp(6,\mathbb{Z})$ modular transformation for the analyses.

Remark on modular weights in low-energy effective field theory from type II string theory

We revisit the modular weights in type IIB magnetized D-brane models. The simple analysis of wave function shows that the four-dimensional matter fields have the modular weight -1/2, but it may shift as one in type IIA intersecting D-brane models. For example, the localized gauge flux as well as the localized curvature can shift the modular weight in the magnetized D-brane models. Such corrections do not affect physical couplings such as physical Yukawa couplings. However, it leads to differences in supersymmetry breaking sfermion masses, which depend on the modular weights, although the $A$-term coefficients and the sum of sfermion masses squared seem to be the same between two models.

Flavor structure in magnetized orbifold and blow-up manifold compactification

As the effective field theory of the superstring theory, ten-dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is induced. We consider the ten-dimensional space-time ${\cal M}_{10}$ as direct products of our four-dimensional space-time ${\cal M}_{4}$ and three two-dimensional compact spaces $X_i\ (i=1,2,3)$, i.e. ${\cal M}_{10} = {\cal M}_4 \times X_2 \times X_2 \times X_3$. In particular, we consider $X_i$ as a torus, the torus orbifold, and also the blow-up manifold of the torus orbifold with background magnetic fluxes. We discuss the modular symmetry in the magnetized torus and its orbifold compactifications. We find that the modular flavor groups and the representations as well as modular weights of the chiral fields such as quarks and leptons obtained from the magnetized torus as well as the orbifold compactifications can be uniquely determined with the magnetic fluxes. We also discuss the magnetized blow-up manifold compactification in which orbifold singularities are replaced by parts of sphere as a smooth manifold. We find that the chiral zero mode numbers on the blow-up manifold as well as the orbifold can be determined only by the magnetic fluxes including localized fluxes due to the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, and then the degree of freedom of localized fluxes gives new additional chiral zero modes. We also find that the new chiral zero modes correspond to localized modes around the orbifold singularities.

Quark hierarchical structures in modular symmetric flavor models at level 6

We study modular symmetric quark flavor models without fine-tuning. Mass matrices are written in terms of modular forms, and modular forms in the vicinity of the modular fixed points become hierarchical depending on their residual charges. Thus modular symmetric flavor models in the vicinity of the modular fixed points have a possibility to describe mass hierarchies without fine-tuning. Since describing quark hierarchies without fine-tuning requires $Z_n$ residual symmetry with $n\geq 6$, we focus on $Γ_6$ modular symmetry in the vicinity of the cusp $τ=i\infty$ where $Z_6$ residual symmetry remains. We use only modular forms belonging to singlet representations of $Γ_6$ to make our analysis simple. Consequently, viable quark flavor models are obtained without fine-tuning.

Zero-mode wave functions by localized gauge fluxes

We study chiral zero-mode wave functions on blow-up manifolds of $T^2/Z_N$ orbifolds with both bulk and localized magnetic flux backgrounds. We introduce a singular gauge transformation in order to remove $Z_N$ phases for $Z_N$ twisted boundary condition of matter fields. We compute wave functions of not only bulk zero modes but also localized modes at the orbifold singular points, which correspond to new zero modes induced by localized flux. By studying their Yukawa couplings, it turns out that only three patterns of Yukawa couplings are allowed. Our theory has a specific coupling selection rule.

Index theorem on magnetized blow-up manifold of $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_N$

We investigate blow-up manifolds of $T^2/{\mathbb{Z}}_N\,(N=2,3,4,6)$ orbifolds with magnetic flux $M$. Since the blow-up manifolds have no singularities, we can apply the Atiyah-Singer index theorem to them. Then, we establish the zero-mode counting formula $n_{+}-n_{-}=(M-V_{+})/N+1$, where $V_{+}$ denotes the sum of winding numbers at fixed points on the $T^2/{\mathbb{Z}}_N$ orbifolds, as the Atiyah-Singer index theorem on the orbifolds, and clarify physical and geometrical meanings of the formula.

Quark and lepton flavor structure in magnetized orbifold models at residual modular symmetric points

We study quark and lepton mass matrices derived from magnetized $T^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold models. Quark and lepton masses have a large hierarchy. In addition, mixing angles are large in the lepton sector, while those are small in the quark sector. We find that this structure can be realized in certain flavor models, which are identified by the zero points of the zero-mode wave functions of fermions and Higgs modes. We classify such realistic flavor models. Fixed points $τ=i$, $e^{2πi/3}$ and $i\infty$ of the modulus $τ$ play a role in realizing a large mass hierarchy through our scenario, where residual $S$, $ST$, and $T$ symmetries remain and the lightest Higgs modes can correspond to eigenstates of residual symmetries at the leading order. As a result, we find that there are 24 flavor models in total which can be realistic in a vicinity of $S$-symmetric vacuum but no flavor models for $ST$ and $T$-symmetric vacua.

Classifications of magnetized $T^4$ and $T^4/Z_2$ orbifold models

We study constructions and classifications of three-generation models based on magnetized $T^4$ and $T^4/{Z}_2$ orbifold as candidates of the compact space. We focus on chiral fermion zero-mode wave functions in the extra dimensions. Freedoms of constant gauge fields, called Scherk-Schwarz phases are taken into account. Infinite number of three-generation models are yielded, corresponding to the ways in which the magnetic flux can be turned on. We classify them in a systematic manner, clarifying the relationship between different models. The Higgs sector is also studied by analyzing possible assignments of the magnetic flux and Scherk-Schwarz phases, etc. to left- and right-handed fermions.

4D modular flavor symmetric models inspired by higher dimensional theory

We study a scenario to derive four-dimensional modular flavor symmetric models from higher dimensional theory by assuming the compactification consistent with the modular symmetry. In our scenario, wavefunctions in extra dimensional compact space are modular forms. That leads to constraints on combinations between modular weights and $Γ_N$ ($Γ_N')$ representations of matter fields. We also present illustrating examples.

Texture zeros of quark mass matrices at fixed point $τ=ω$ in modular flavor symmetry

We study systematically derivation of the specific texture zeros, that is the nearest neighbor interaction (NNI) form of the quark mass matrices at the fixed point $τ=ω$ in modular flavor symmetric models. We present models that the NNI forms of the quark mass matrices are simply realized at the fixed point $τ=ω$ in the $A_4$ modular flavor symmetry by taking account multi-Higgs fields. Such texture zero structure originates from the $ST$ charge of the residual symmetry $Z_3$ of $SL(2,Z)$. The NNI form can be realized at the fixed point $τ= ω$ in $A_4$ and $S_4$ modular flavor models with two pairs of Higgs fields when we assign properly modular weights to Yukawa couplings and $A_4$ and $S_4$ representations to three generations of quarks. We need four pairs of Higgs fields to realize the NNI form in $A_5$ modular flavor models.
