A worldsheet description of flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We demonstrate how recent developments in string field theory provide a framework to systematically study type II flux compactifications with non-trivial Ramond-Ramond profiles.

Asymptotic flux compactifications and the swampland [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We initiate the systematic study of flux scalar potentials and their vacua by using asymptotic Hodge theory. To begin with, we consider F-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau fourfolds with four-form flux.

Moduli stabilization in asymptotic flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We present a novel strategy to systematically study complex-structure moduli stabilization in Type IIB and F-theory flux compactifications. In particular, we determine vacua in any asymptotic regime of the complex-structure moduli space by exploiting ...

Universal axion backreaction in flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We study the backreaction effect of a large axion field excursion on the saxion partner residing in the same N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 multiplet. Such configurations are relevant in attempts to realize axion monodromy inflation in string compactifications.

Automated consistent truncations and stability of flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 Classical flux compactifications contribute to a well-controlled corner of the string landscape, therefore providing an important testing ground for a variety of conjectures.

Threshold corrections in heterotic flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We compute the one-loop threshold corrections to the gauge and gravitational couplings for a large class of N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ non-Kähler heterotic compactifications with three-form flux, consisting in principal two-torus bundles over K3 surfaces.

Geometric Algebra Techniques in Flux Compactifications [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2016 We study “constrained generalized Killing (s)pinors,” which characterize supersymmetric flux compactifications of supergravity theories. Using geometric algebra techniques, we give conceptually clear and computationally effective methods for translating ...

Type IIB flux compactifications with h 1,1 = 0 [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We revisit flux compactifications of type IIB string theory on ‘spaces’ dual to rigid Calabi-Yau manifolds. This rather unexplored part of the string landscapes harbors many interesting four-dimensional solutions, namely supersymmetric N $$ \mathcal{N} $$

Proton decay in flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We study proton decay in a six-dimensional orbifold GUT model with gauge group SO(10)×U(1) A . Magnetic U(1) A flux in the compact dimensions determines the multiplicity of quark-lepton generations, and it also breaks supersymmetry by giving universal ...

Black branes in flux compactifications [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 A bstractWe construct charged black branes in type IIA flux compactifications that are dual to (2 + 1)-dimensional field theories at finite density. The internal space is a general Calabi-Yau manifold with fluxes, with internal dimensions much smaller ...
