Allowed charges
i. Overview
Within SU(5) F-theory with 10d and 5-bar matter fields there are constraints on the allowed U(1) charges the fields can have. These constraints are determined in arXiv:1504.05593. They are related to the distinct configurations of the zero-section (`σ₀`) relativity to the additional rational section (`σ₁`s) in codimension one fiber. For our purposes here, we currently just state the constraints found in arXiv:1504.05593, and leave the proof and derivation of these constraints to future work.

Codimension-one configurations of sections and in F-theory
This inductive type represents the set of distinct geometric configurations of the zero-section relative to the additional rational section within the codimension-one fiber (specifically an fiber) of an F-theory model. These configurations characterize how sections intersect the fiber components and are used to determine the allowed charges for matter fields in the and representations.
Decidability of equality for codimension-one configurations
This instance provides a procedure to determine whether two codimension-one configurations of sections and in an F-theory model are identical. Specifically, for any two configurations , it is decidable whether .
Finiteness of codimension-one configurations
The set of distinct geometric configurations of the zero-section and the additional rational section in the codimension-one fiber of an F-theory model, represented by the type , is finite. This finite set is explicitly given by the collection of configurations .
Allowed charges for the representation given a codimension-one configuration
This function assigns a finite set of integers representing the allowed charges for matter fields in the representation of F-theory, based on the codimension-one configuration of the sections and .
