Description
I will discuss gauge threshold corrections in (non)supersymmetric heterotic vacua. After a general introduction to the general structure of these thresholds and to their universality properties, even in the absence of supersymmetry, I will present new vacua (supersymmetric and not) which do not suffer from the decompactification problem.
