abstract

We investigate the structure of the moduli space of 9D heterotic interpolating models with a complete set of Wilson line backgrounds and a radius parameter by computing the one-loop partition functions and the cosmological constants and by deriving the massless spectra, paying attention to the region $a \approx 0$ where supersymmetry is asymptotically restoring. We find some special planes and points in the moduli space where the gauge symmetry is enhanced and/or massless fermions appear. The gauge symmetry is maximally enhanced at the minima of the one-loop effective potential where the cosmological constant is negative.

    A direct computation from the tentative NS5-brane spectrum gives the opposite Z3 topological term (1/3 vs 2/3) from Tachikawa-Zhang, so the spectrum or the inflow interpretation must change.
