Abstract

The equations of motion of a modified 10-dimensional supergravity Lagrangian coupled to supersymmetrie Yang-Mills are solved using non-symmetric 6-dimensional coset spaces with torsion. Four-dimensional Minkowski space is obtained, together with some realistic gauge groups and particle spectra.
