We propose a new guiding principle for phenomenology: special geometry in the vacuum space. New algorithmic methods which efficiently compute geometric properties of the vacuum space of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories are described. We illustrate the technique on subsectors of the MSSM. The fragility of geometric structure that we find in the moduli space motivates phenomenologically realistic deformations of the superpotential, while arguing against others. Special geometry in the vacuum may therefore signal the presence of string physics underlying the low-energy effective theory.

The Vacuum Moduli Space of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
The full classical vacuum moduli space of the MSSM is computed: three rational components of dimensions 1, 15 and 29 without neutrinos, and one component when neutrinos are added.

Vacuum Geometry of the Standard Model
The vacuum moduli space of the MSSM is shown to consist of three rational components of dimensions 1, 15, and 29 via Gröbner basis computations.
