The backgrounds are non-toroidal Calabi-Yau manifolds described at special points in moduli space by Gepner models. Surprisingly, the abstract conformal field theory computation reveals Chan-Paton gauge groups as big as SO(12) x SO(20) or SO(8)^4 x SO(4)^3.minor corrections, some comments incorporated, some references addedHigh Energy Physics - Theorytext
