Abstract

In the previous chapters we have shown that heterotic orbifold models can provide the UV completion of orbifold GUT field theories. They provide a “fertile patch” in the string landscape. They naturally contain local GUTs where complete families of quarks and leptons reside. This leads to non-trivial Yukawa sectors with light active neutrinos due to a See-Saw mechanism.
