chiral matter, adjoint and (bi-)fundamental matter

U(n), SO(n), Sp(n) gauge groups (exceptional gauge groups in F-theory)

models with the correct matter content

BUT structure of yukawa couplings, e.g.: hierarchy of masses, ckm matrix

Motivation for branes at singularities

Local models -> a lot of information without addressing moduli stabilisation

Effective field theory (although distances below string scale) well under control

Gauge coupling unification (in principle)

Powerful (dimer) techniques for toric singularities

Gauge theories highly restricted (unlike intersecting branes in IIA)

Philosophy: Use this algorithmic view of gauge theories to find general features for gauge theories probing toric singularities!

Are there properties revealed that are not apparent from looking at the superpotential

and are they useful for model building?

Summary

D-branes at toric singularities interesting class of models:

Upper bound of 3 families in toric singularities

Mass Hierarchies are possible, generic structure (0, m, M).

Sufficient structure for realistic CKM-matrix & CP-violation (concrete models with this structure)

Open questions: compact models, a completely realistic local model...
