Description

Heterotic toroidal orbifolds represent a powerful framework to inspect the landscape due to their modular properties. In this talk, I will extend the basic SL(2,Z)-symmetric setup to higher genera modular groups, and show how to construct the building blocks needed to compute the scalar potential and study brand new vacua.
