Three family supersymmetric Pati-Salam model from rigid intersecting D6-branes
We construct, for the first time, a three family <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><a:mi mathvariant="script">N</a:mi><a:mo>=</a:mo><a:mn>1</a:mn></a:math> supersymmetric Pati-Salam model from rigid intersecting D6-branes on a factorizable <d:math xmlns:d="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><d:msup><d:mi mathvariant="double-struck">T</d:mi><d:mn>6</d:mn></d:msup><d:mo>/</d:mo><d:mo stretchy="false">(</d:mo><d:msub><d:mi mathvariant="double-struck">Z</d:mi><d:mn>2</d:mn></d:msub><d:mo>×</d:mo><d:msubsup><d:mi mathvariant="double-struck">Z</d:mi><d:mn>2</d:mn><d:mo>′</d:mo></d:msubsup><d:mo stretchy="false">)</d:mo></d:math> orientifold with discrete torsion. The factorizable geometry allows for explicit control over rigid cycles and moduli stabilization. We can break the Pati-Salam gauge symmetry down to the Standard Model (SM) gauge symmetry via the supersymmetry preserving Higgs mechanism, generate the SM fermion masses and mixings, and break the supersymmetry via gaugino condensations in the hidden sector.
