Gauge hierarchies in the E8xE8' superstring theory
Description
We present a systematic approach to the problem of gauge hierarchy structure in E8xE8' superstring theory. It is shown that only very limited E6 breaking schemes are allowed from the group-theoretical and phenomenological point of view. The ordinary GUTs are not permitted and moreover the unification of SU(3)sub(c) and SU(2)sub(W) cannot occur at the energy scale below Msub(P1). We give four promising models and add some comments on each of them. (orig.)
