Note on arithmetic structure of modulus vacua in flux compactifications

We study modulus stabilization by background fluxes. The supersymmetric minima satisfy a holomorphic quadratic equation. As concrete examples, we consider $T^6/(\mathbb{Z}_2\times\mathbb{Z}_2')$ orientifold model and a simple Calabi-Yau compactification. The modulus values show specific patterns. For example, they show the Farey sequence. The void structure appears around modulus vacua with high degeneracies. We find a correlation between the degeneracy and the void area. The modulus vacua are related by discrete Abelian symmetries generated by the Gauss composition law, which includes the CP symmetry. Spontaneous CP violation is also discussed.

More about modular symmetries and non-invertible properties in magnetized compactifications

We study the modular symmetry in magnetized compactifications. The zero-modes with different Scherk-Schwarz phases transform each other. A generic model does not include modes with all the Scherk-Schwarz phases. Incomplete multiplet representations appear. Thus, the modular symmetry is violated as group-like symmetry. However, the modular symmetry still controls coupling terms in those models. Modular forms of the full symmetry appear as coupling constants.

Residual group-like symmetries in selection rules without group actions

We analyze loop-induced group-like symmetries in theories where fields are labeled by basis elements of a fusion algebra constructed from the conjugacy classes of finite groups. Although the fusion rules for conjugacy classes are in general violated at loop level, residual group-like symmetries, including both Abelian and non-Abelian ones, remain exact through a procedure referred to as ``groupification''. By examining various conjugacy classes of finite groups realized in heterotic string theory on non-Abelian orbifolds, we identify an approximate discrete symmetry that controls the magnitude of loop-induced couplings. As a result, most parameters appearing in non-invertible selection rules are natural in the sense of 't Hooft. Furthermore, we discuss anomalies of the groupification symmetry, which can impose additional constraints on models with non-invertible fusion rules.

Yukawa Textures with Enhanced Symmetries in Heterotic Calabi-Yau Compactifications

We clarify the structure of Yukawa couplings and mass matrices for matter fields in heterotic string theory on smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds with standard embedding. The topological structure of Calabi-Yau threefolds leads to interesting Yukawa textures that cannot be derived from group-theoretical symmetries, e.g., the so-called Weinberg texture in the case of two generations of matter fields. Furthermore, we find that a $U(2)$ flavor symmetry, which plays an important role in controlling higher-dimensional operators in the Standard Model effective field theory, emerges at specific loci in the moduli space of multi-Higgs fields. Small perturbations around these loci generate semi-realistic patterns of quark masses and mixings.
