Description
I discuss a set of conditions under which the strong CP problem is solved by spontaneous CP violation. Such conditions find their natural realization in anomaly-free modular invariant supersymmetric theories, suggesting a common solution to the strong CP problem and the flavor puzzle. In its minimal realization, this solution requires a single chiral multiplet, beyond those of the MSSM. If one of its spin-zero components is light, it provides a viable Dark Matter candidate.
