Key Points

  • This study aims to explore coupling selection rules in heterotic string theory specifically on non-Abelian orbifolds.
  • Analyze boundary conditions classified by conjugacy classes of space group elements.
  • Examine the impact of non-invertible selection rules on twisted and untwisted sectors.
  • Identified the emergence of non-invertible selection rules affecting couplings.
  • Discovered characteristic patterns in Yukawa matrices as a result of these rules.

Abstract

A bstract We investigate coupling selection rules in heterotic string theory on non-Abelian orbifolds. Since boundary conditions on the orbifolds are classified by conjugacy classes of space group elements, non-Abelian orbifolds give rise to non-invertible selection rules on couplings among twisted sectors as well as ones including untwisted sectors. Furthermore, we find that non-invertible selection rules lead to characteristic patterns of Yukawa matrices.
