Description

In this talk, we discuss various aspects of Minkowski vacua arising in the $1^9$ and $2^6$ Landau-Ginzburg Models. In particular, we present fully stabilized $\mathcal{N}=1$ Minkowski vacua and violations of the refined tadpole conjecture. We also comment on symmetry arguments that could potentially explain the existence of flat directions in these models.
