On flux vacua and modularity

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Geometric modularity has recently been conjectured to be a characteristic feature of flux vacua with W = 0. This paper provides support for the conjecture by computing motivic modular forms in a direct way for several string compactifications for which ...

A new de Sitter solution with a weakly warped deformed conifold

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We revisit moduli stabilisation for type IIB flux compactifications that include a warped throat region corresponding to a warped deformed conifold, with an anti-D3-brane sitting at its tip.

Massive IIA flux compactifications and U-dualities [PDF]

, 2006
We attempt to find a rigorous formulation for the massive type IIA orientifold compactifications of string theory introduced in hep-th/0505160. An approximate double T-duality converts this background into IIA string theory on a twisted torus, but ...

Cosmological perturbations in flux compactifications [PDF]

Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2005
Kaluza-Klein compactifications with four-dimensional inflationary geometry combine the attractive idea of higher dimensional models with the attempt to incorporate four-dimensional early-time or late-time cosmology. We analyze the mass spectrum of cosmological perturbations around such compactifications, including the scalar, vector, and tensor sector.

The three‐dimensional Seiberg–Witten equations for 3/2$3/2$‐spinors: A compactness theorem

Mathematische Nachrichten, Volume 298, Issue 10, Page 3331-3375, October 2025.
Abstract The Rarita‐Schwinger–Seiberg‐Witten (RS–SW) equations are defined similarly to the classical Seiberg–Witten equations, where a geometric non–Dirac‐type operator replaces the Dirac operator called the Rarita–Schwinger operator. In dimension 4, the RS–SW equation was first considered by the second author (Nguyen [J. Geom. Anal. 33(2023), no. 10,

Compactifications of Type II supergravities in superspace

Journal of High Energy Physics
We propose a way to describe compactifications of Type II supergravities with fluxes directly from superspace. The on-shell supergravity constraints used are the ones that arise naturally from the pure spinor superstring.

A Barren Landscape?

, 2004
We consider the generation of a non-perturbative superpotential in F-theory compactifications with flux. We derive a necessary condition for the generation of such a superpotential in F-theory.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 2903-2974, October 2025.
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

The tadpole conjecture in asymptotic limits

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
The tadpole conjecture suggests that the complete stabilization of complex structure deformations in Type IIB and F-theory flux compactifications is severely obstructed by the tadpole bound on the fluxes.

On real and imaginary roots of generalised Okamoto polynomials

Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 112, Issue 4, October 2025.
Abstract Recently, B. Yang and J. Yang derived a family of rational solutions to the Sasa–Satsuma equation, and showed that any of its members constitutes a partial‐rogue wave provided that an associated generalised Okamoto polynomial has no real roots or no imaginary roots.
