Heterotic Superpotentials and Moduli

We review some recent progress in computing massless spectra 

and moduli in heterotic string compactifications. In particular, it was   

recently shown that the heterotic Bianchi Identity can be accounted 

for by the construction of a holomorphic operator. Mathematically,

this corresponds to a holomorphic double extension. Moduli can 

then be computed in terms of cohomologies of this operator. We 

will see how the same structure can be derived form a 

Gukov-Vafa-Witten type superpotential. We note a relation between 

the lifted complex structure and bundle moduli, and cover some 

examples, and briefly consider obstructions and Yukawa 

couplings arising from these structures.
