## TL;DR

This paper reviews the connection between asymmetric conformal field theories and gauged supergravity vacua, focusing on classifying asymmetric Gepner models and their relation to non-geometric flux compactifications.

## Contribution

It presents a classification scheme for asymmetric Gepner models in various dimensions and links them to non-geometric flux compactifications and super Higgs-effect mechanisms.

## Key findings

- Classification of asymmetric Gepner models in 8D, 6D, and 4D with at least eight supercharges.
- Identification of 4D asymmetric Gepner models with ${m N}=1$ supersymmetry as Minkowski vacua of ${m N}=2$ GSUGRA.
- Insights into mechanisms like the super Higgs-effect for categorizing these models.

## Abstract

Recent progress on the relation between asymmetric conformal field theories and vacua of gauged supergravities is reviewed. This includes an attempt to classify asymmetric Gepner models in 8D, 6D and 4D with at least eight supercharges, and how they can be categorized by just a few mechanisms including the super Higgs-effect. The latter is a prerequisite for the identification with non-geometric flux compactifications. We also highlight our findings for the identification of 4D asymmetric Gepner models with ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetry with Minkowski vacua of ${\cal N}=2$ GSUGRA.
