Description

We analyze in detail a recently proposed four-generation superstring model, based on an algebraic variety in CP4xCP4. The group of honest symmetries GH of the manifold is identified and the transformation properties of the light fields under GH are given. We also discuss the flux breaking of E6 symmetry, identify the candidates for matter parity, and analyze supersymmetry breaking. For the Pati-Salam version of the theory we isolate the light fields of the theory and discuss the issues of the naturally light Higgs field(s) and the resulting fermionic mass matrices
