Realizing Higher-Level Gauge Symmetries in String Theory: New Embeddings for String GUTs

We consider the methods by which higher-level and non-simply laced gauge symmetries can be realized in free-field heterotic string theory. We show that all such realizations have a common underlying feature, namely a dimensional truncation of the charge lattice, and we identify such dimensional trun...
