Abstract: For supersymmetric GUT models from heterotic string theory, built from a stable holomorphic SU(n) vector bundle V on a Calabi-Yau threefold X, the net amount of chiral matter can be computed by a Chern class computation. Corresponding computations for the number NH of Higgses lead for the phenomenologically relevant cases of GUT group SU(5) or SO(10) to consideration of the bundle La2V. In a class of bundles where everything can be computed explicitly (spectral bundles on elliptic X) we find that the computation for NH gives a result which is in conflict with expectations. We argue that this discrepancy has its origin in the subtle geometry of the spectral data for La2V and that taking this subtlety into account properly should resolve the problem.
