Description

Modular flavor symmetries are a new and exciting approach to the flavor problem. Simple, successful models have been proposed in the bottom-up approach. In this talk the geometric interpretation and intuition of modular flavor symmetries will be provided by deriving modular flavor symmetries from a torus. It will also be discussed how they emerge from UV complete string compactifications.
