Combinatorics in 𝒩 = 1 Heterotic Vacua

Table 2

The list of standard-like constraints on the heterotic vacua, each described by a Calabi-Yau threefolds and a -bundle thereon; the integers and parameterise the bundle as in (3.1), where ,   , and . The second column states the constraints on the background geometry, and the third column expresses the corresponding algebraic equations that the parameters and must obey, where are the intersection numbers for a given basis for .
