Symmetry breaking in quantum theory (81R40) String and superstring theories; other extended objects (e.g., branes) in quantum field theory (81T30)

Abstract: We present a novel source for supersymmetry breaking in orientifold models, and show that it gives a vanishing contribution to the vacuum energy at genus zero and three-half. We also argue that all the corresponding perturbative contributions to the vacuum energy from higher-genus Riemann surfaces vanish identically.
