Balanced and Aeppli parameters for the heterotic moduli

In this paper, we fix the complex structure and explore the moduli space of the heterotic system by considering two different yet “dual” deformation paths starting from a Kähler solution. They correspond to deformation along the Bott–Chern cohomology class and the Aeppli cohomology class, respectively. Using the implicit function theorem, we prove the stability of the existence of heterotic solutions under these two deformations and hence establish an initial step in constructing local moduli coordinates around a Kähler solution.
