Résumé |
Calabi-Yau compactifications of the $E_8\times E_8$ heterotic string provide
one way of obtaining the four-dimensional particle physics described by the
Standard Model. While the topology of the Calabi-Yau space determines the
overall matter content in the low-energy effective field theory, further details
of the compactification geometry are needed to calculate the normalized physical
couplings and masses of elementary particles. We present novel numerical
techniques, including machine learning, for computing physically normalized
Yukawa couplings in several heterotic models using the standard embedding. We
observe that the results produced are in excellent agreement with the expected
values. |
