Description

We briefly review the different approaches to model building within type IIB string theory and show the utility of open string wavefuntions for computing 4D physical couplings, such as Yukawa couplings. In the second part of the talk we report on some of the recent developments in extending these techniques to compactifications with closed string fluxes or with non-diagonal magetization.
