    • F-theory and Neutrinos: Kaluza-Klein Dilution of Flavor Hierarchy 

      Bouchard, Vincent; Heckman, Jonathan; Seo, Jihye; Vafa, C. (Springer Verlag, 2010)
      We study minimal implementations of Majorana and Dirac neutrino scenarios in F-theory GUT models. In both cases the mass scale of the neutrinos \(m_{\nu} \sim M_{weak}^2/\land_{UV}\) arises from integrating out Kaluza-Klein ...
    • F-theory, GUTs, and the Weak Scale 

      Heckman, Jonathan; Vafa, C. (Springer Verlag, 2009)
      In this paper we study a deformation of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking in a class of local F-theory GUT models where the scale of supersymmetry breaking determines the value of the mu term. Geometrically correlating ...
