A Note on Local GUT Models in F-Theory
Abstract
We construct non-minimal GUT local models in the F-theory configuration. The gauge group on the bulk GS is one rank higher than the GUT gauge group. The line bundles on the curves are non-trivial to break GS down to the GUT gauge groups. We demonstrate examples of SU(5) GUT from GS=SU(6) and GS=SO(10), the flipped SU(5) from GS=SO(10), and the SO(10) GUT from GS=SO(12) and GS=E6. We obtain complete GUT matter spectra and couplings, with minimum exotic matter contents. GUT gauge group breaking to MSSM is achievable by instanton configurations.
