Extra dimensional field theories,
in particular
string-derived extra dimensional field theories, play important roles in particle physics
as well as cosmology .

Chiral theory
When we start with extra dimensional field theories, how to realize chiral theories is one of important
issues from the viewpoint of particle physics.
Zero-modes between chiral and anti-chiral fields are different from each other
on certain backgrounds,
e.g. CY, toroidal orbifold, warped orbifold, magnetized extra dimension, etc.

The limited number of solutions with non-trivial backgrounds are known.

Magnetic flux
Indeed, several studies have been done in both extra dimensional field theories and string theories with magnetic flux background.
In particular, magnetized D-brane models are T-duals of intersecting D-brane models.
Several interesting models have been
constructed in intersecting D-brane models,
that is, the starting theory is U(N) SYM.
Phenomenology of magnetized brane models
It is important to study phenomenological
aspects of magnetized brane models such as massless spectra from several gauge groups, U(N), SO(N), E6, E7, E8, ...
Yukawa couplings and higher order n-point couplings in 4D effective theory,
their symmetries like flavor symmetries, Kahler metric, etc.
It is also important to extend such studies on torus background to other backgrounds
with magnetic fluxes, e.g. orbifold backgrounds.
2. Extra dimensions with magnetic fluxes: basic tools
2-1. Magnetized torus model
We start with N=1 super Yang-Mills theory in D = 4+2n dimensions.
For example, 10D super YM theory
consists of gauge bosons (10D vector) and adjoint fermions (10D spinor).
We consider 2n-dimensional torus compactification with magnetic flux background.
We can start with 6D SYM (+ hyper multiplets), or non-SUSY models (+ matter fields ), similarly.

1.
We can get exactly 3 generations of quarks and leptons,
but there are tachyonic modes and no top Yukawa.
2.
We allow MSSM + vector-like generations and require the top Yukawa couplings and no exotic fields
as well as no vector-like quark doublets.

There are many vector-like generations.
They have 3- and 4-point couplings with singlets (with no hypercharges).
VEVs of singlets mass terms of vector-like generations
Light modes depend on such mass terms.
That is, low-energy phenomenologies depends on VEVs of singlets (moduli).

N-point couplings
Abe, Choi, T.K., Ohki, ‘09 We can extend this analysis to generic n-point
couplings.
N-point couplings = products of 3-point couplings = products of theta-functions This behavior is non-trivial. (It’s like CFT.) Such a behavior would be satisfied
not for generic w.f.’s, but for specific w.f.’s.
However, this behavior could be expected from T-duality between magnetized
and intersecting D-brane models.
T-duality
The 3-point couplings coincide between
magnetized and intersecting D-brane models.

Cremades, Ibanez, Marchesano, ‘04
Such correspondence can be extended to
4-point and higher order couplings because of CFT-like behaviors, e.g.,

Applications of couplings
We can obtain quark/lepton masses and mixing angles.
Yukawa couplings depend on volume moduli, complex structure moduli and Wilson lines.
By tuning those values, we can obtain semi-realistic results.

Summary
We have studied phenomenological aspects of magnetized brane models.
Model building from U(N), E6, E7, E8 N-point couplings are comupted.
4D effective field theory has non-Abelian flavor symmetries, e.g. D4, Δ(27).
Orbifold background with magnetic flux is
also important. S2 and others are also interesting.
