Distribution of the number of generations in flux compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2014
Flux compactification of string theory generates an ensemble with a large number of vacua, called the landscape. By using the statistics of various properties of low-energy effective theories in the string landscape, one can therefore hope to provide a ...

Calabi-Yau period geometry and restricted moduli in Type II compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
The period geometry of Calabi-Yau n-folds — characterised by their variations of Hodge structure governed by Griffiths transversality, a graded Frobenius algebra, an integral monodromy and an intriguing arithmetic structure — is analysed for applications

Kähler corrections for the volume modulus of flux compactifications

open access: hybrid, 2005
No-scale models arise in many compactifications of string theory and supergravity, the most prominent recent example being type IIB flux compactifications.

Dynamics of warped flux compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2008
We discuss the four dimensional effective action for type IIB flux compactifications, and obtain the quadratic terms taking warp effects into account.

Lectures on Gauged Supergravity and Flux Compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 2008
The low-energy effective theories describing string compactifications in the presence of fluxes are so-called gauged supergravities: deformations of the standard abelian supergravity theories. The deformation parameters can be identified with the various

Dynamics of warped flux compactifications with backreacting antibranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We revisit the effective low-energy dynamics of the volume modulus in warped flux compactifications with anti-D3-branes in order to analyze the prospects for metastable de Sitter vacua and brane inflation along the lines of KKLT/KKLMMT.

Wilson lines and Chern-Simons flux in explicit heterotic Calabi-Yau compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2015
We study to what extent Wilson lines in heterotic Calabi-Yau compactifications lead to non-trivial H-flux via Chern-Simons terms. Wilson lines are basic ingredients for Standard Model constructions but their induced H-flux may affect the consistency of ...

Flux vacua attractors and generalized compactifications

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2009
We investigate whether there are attractor equations for N = 1 flux vacua in generalized compactifications. We fill a gap in the existing literature by verifying analytically that the recently proposed susy attractors, for type IIB CY(3) orientifold ...

Beginners lectures on flux compactifications and related Swampland topics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics reports, 2023
These lecture notes provide a pedagogical introduction, with exercises, to the techniques used in attempts to construct vacua with stabilised moduli in string theory.
