The author provides a systematic classification of potentially realistic heterotic covariant lattice vacua, which possess a lower number of moduli fields when compared to conventional compactification methods, by means of number theoretical methods. These methods, while well known to the mathematics community, have not yet found many applications to physics. They are introduced to the degree necessary to understand the computations carried out throughout this work. Furthermore, explicit covariant lattice models with particularly interesting properties are analyzed in detail. Finally, new light is shed on the relation between covariant lattice models and asymmetric orbifold compactifications, the result being a concrete correspondence between certain types of asymmetric orbifolds and those classified covariant lattices. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aString theory 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aMathematical physics 606 $aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 606 $aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13120 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aString theory. 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 0$aMathematical physics. 615 14$aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory. 615 24$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 615 24$aMathematical Applications in the Physical Sciences. 676 $a530.15 700 $aBeye$b Florian$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0825102 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150542503321 996 $aChiral Four-Dimensional Heterotic String Vacua from Covariant Lattices$91835295 997 $aUNINA
