Geometric Algebra Techniques in Flux Compactifications [PDF]
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 ...

Lobotomy of flux compactifications [PDF]
We provide the dictionary between four-dimensional gauged supergravity and type II compactifications on $\mathbb{T}^6$ with metric and gauge fluxes in the absence of supersymmetry breaking sources, such as branes and orientifold planes. Secondly, we prove that there is a unique isotropic compactification allowing for critical points.

Flavor mixings in flux compactifications [PDF]
A multiplicity of quark-lepton families can naturally arise as zero-modes in flux compactifications. The flavour structure of quark and lepton mass matrices is then determined by the wave function profiles of the zero-modes. We consider a supersymmetric $SO(10)\times U(1)$ model in six dimensions compactified on the orbifold $T^2/{\mathbb Z_2}$ with ...

Flux compactifications and naturalness [PDF]
Free massless scalars have a shift symmetry. This is usually broken by gauge and Yukawa interactions, such that quantum corrections induce a quadratically divergent mass term.

Three-forms in supergravity and flux compactifications [PDF]
We present a duality procedure that relates conventional four-dimensional matter-coupled $$\mathcal{N}=1$$ N = 1 supergravities to dual formulations in which auxiliary fields are replaced by field strengths of gauge three-forms.
