Hierarchies from fluxes in string compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2002
Warped compactifications with significant warping provide one of the few known mechanisms for naturally generating large hierarchies of physical scales. We demonstrate that this mechanism is realizable in string theory, and give examples involving orientifold compactifications of IIB string theory and F-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau four-folds.

Fluxes in exceptional field theory and threebrane sigma-models

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Starting from a higher Courant bracket associated to exceptional generalized geometry, we provide a systematic derivation of all types of fluxes and their Bianchi identities for four-dimensional compactifications of M-theory.

Cosmological perturbations in flux compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Lectures on nongeometric flux compactifications [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 2007
These notes present a pedagogical review of nongeometric flux compactifications. We begin by reviewing well-known geometric flux compactifications in Type II string theory, and argue that one must include nongeometric "fluxes" in order to have a superpotential which is invariant under T-duality.

The tadpole conjecture at large complex-structure

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
The tadpole conjecture by Bena, Blåbäck, Graña and Lüst effectively states that for string-theory compactifications with a large number of complex-structure moduli, not all of these moduli can be stabilized by fluxes.

Xylose Acetals ‐ a New Class of Sustainable Solvents and Their Application in Enzymatic Polycondensation

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...
