Charting the landscape of N=4 flux compactifications [PDF]
We analyse the vacuum structure of isotropic Z_2 x Z_2 flux compactifications, allowing for a single set of sources. Combining algebraic geometry with supergravity techniques, we are able to classify all vacua for both type IIA and IIB backgrounds with ...

The embedding tensor of Scherk-Schwarz flux compactifications from eleven dimensions [PDF]
We study the Scherk-Schwarz reduction of D = 11 supergravity with background fluxes in the context of a recently developed framework pertaining to D = 11 supergravity.

Profinite direct sums with applications to profinite groups of type ΦR$\Phi _R$
Abstract We show that the ‘profinite direct sum’ is a good notion of infinite direct sums for profinite modules, having properties similar to those of direct sums of abstract modules. For example, the profinite direct sum of projective modules is projective, and there is a Mackey's formula for profinite modules described using these sums.

Engineering small flux superpotentials and mass hierarchies
We study the stabilization of complex structure moduli in Type IIB flux compactifications by using recent general results about the form of the superpotential and Kähler potential near the boundaries of the moduli space. In this process we show how vacua

Black branes in flux compactifications [PDF]
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 ...

Theta divisors and permutohedra
Abstract We establish an intriguing relation of the smooth theta divisor Θn$\Theta ^n$ with permutohedron Πn$\Pi ^n$ and the corresponding toric variety XΠn$X_\Pi ^n$. In particular, we show that the generalised Todd genus of the theta divisor Θn$\Theta ^n$ coincides with h$h$‐polynomial of permutohedron Πn$\Pi ^n$ and thus is different from the same ...

Comments on classical AdS flux vacua with scale separation
AdS flux vacua with a parametric separation between the AdS and KK scales have been conjectured to be in the Swampland. We study flux compactifications of massive IIA supergravity with O6 planes which are claimed to allow moduli-stabilised and scale ...

Massive IIA flux compactifications and U-dualities [PDF]
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 ...

Geometric algebra techniques in flux compactifications (II) [PDF]
A bstractWe study constrained generalized Killing spinors over the metric cone and cylinder of a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold, developing a toolkit which can be used to investigate certain problems arising in supersymmetric flux compactifications of ...

Compactifications of strata of differentials
Abstract In this informal expository note, we quickly introduce and survey compactifications of strata of holomorphic 1‐forms on Riemann surfaces, that is, spaces of translation surfaces. In the last decade, several of these have been constructed, studied, and successfully applied to problems.
