Building SO$_{10}$- models with $\mathbb{D}_{4}$ symmetry

Abstract

Using characters of finite group representations and monodromy of matter curves in F-GUT, we complete partial results in literature by building SO$% _{10}$ models with dihedral $\mathbb{D}_{4}$ discrete symmetry. We first revisit the $\mathbb{S}_{4}$-and $\mathbb{S}_{3}$-models from the discrete group character view, then we extend the construction to $\mathbb{D}_{4}$.\ We find that there are three types of $SO_{10}\times \mathbb{D}_{4}$ models depending on the ways the $\mathbb{S}_{4}$-triplets break down in terms of irreducible $\mathbb{D}_{4}$- representations: $\left({\alpha} \right) $ as $\boldsymbol{1}_{_{+,-}}\oplus \boldsymbol{1}_{_{+,-}}\oplus \boldsymbol{1}_{_{-,+}};$ or $\left({\beta}\right) \boldsymbol{\ 1}_{_{+,+}}\oplus \boldsymbol{1}_{_{+,-}}\oplus \boldsymbol{1}_{_{-,-}};$ or also $\left({\gamma}\right) $ $\mathbf{1}_{_{+,-}}\oplus \mathbf{2}_{_{0,0}}$. Superpotentials and other features are also given.
