In this paper, we continue the analysis of heterotic string compactifications on half-flat mirror manifolds by including the 10-dimensional gauge fields. It is argued, that the heterotic Bianchi identity is solved by a variant of the standard embedding. Then, the resulting gauge group in four dimensions is still E6 despite the fact that the Levi-Civita connection has SO(6) holonomy. We derive the associated four-dimensional effective theories including matter field terms for such compactifications. The results are also extended to more general manifolds with SU(3) structure.

The paper
Original abstract
In this paper, we continue the analysis of heterotic string compactifications on half-flat mirror manifolds by including the 10-dimensional gauge fields. It is argued, that the heterotic Bianchi identity is solved by a variant of the standard embedding. Then, the resulting gauge group in four dimensions is still E6 despite the fact that the Levi-Civita connection has SO(6) holonomy. We derive the associated four-dimensional effective theories including matter field terms for such compactifications. The results are also extended to more general manifolds with SU(3) structure.

In [ref] we started to consider the moduli stabilisation problem in the models of [ref] and here we shall continue along the same route in that we make a supergravity analysis of the moduli stabilisation problem in models which contain matter fields.

For these fields we systematically compute their couplings in the effective action, extending the analysis in [ref] .[For compactifications on a Calabi-Yau threefold a similar analysis has been performed, for example, in [ref] .] However, since the effective action sensitively depends on the choice of the gauge bundle we cannot give a model-independent answer.

The Kähler potential for the above set of fields is obtained from standard dimensional reduction [ref] as [equation] The superpotential is obtained from the generalized Gukov-Vafa-Witten formula [ref] [equation] After inserting the various forms from Eq. [ref] and [ref] and using Eq. [ref] as well as the properties of the half-flat mirror basis given in Section [ref] this leads to [equation] The first term arises from the non-vanishing torsion of the internal space and the second term is due to the non-vanishing H-flux induced by the gauge bundle.

The generic form of the Kähler potential, given an arbitrary (conventional) $3$ structure, in the heterotic theory was given in [ref] following [ref] and for generic heterotic vacua in [ref] (matching the original expressions in the case of Calabi–Yau compactifications [ref] ).

However, in the heterotic setting there is a dearth of sources and fluxes, and an alternative to turning on fluxes is to replace the compactification Calabi-Yau manifold by SU(3) manifolds known as half-flat mirror manifolds, which bear close resemblance to the original Calabi-Yau manifolds [ref] .

A more general class of heterotic non Calabi-Yau compactifications on half-flat mirror manifolds – manifolds which appear in the context of type II mirror symmetry with NS flux – has been introduced some time ago in Refs. [ref] .

Instead we will adopt the "adiabatic approach" of Ref. [ref] which is based on the assumption that these new manifolds can be seen as "small" variations of the underlying Calabi–Yau manifold.

To determine the expansion of the 10-dimensional fields into low-energy modes we will be guided by an "adiabatic principle" which has been proposed and successfully applied to type II string theory in Ref. [ref] and has been shown in Ref. [ref] to lead to a consistent description of the gravitational sector in heterotic theories.
