The emergence proposal and the emergent string
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We explore the Emergence Proposal for the moduli metric and the gauge couplings in a concrete model with 7 saxionic and 7 axionic moduli fields, namely the compactification of the type IIA superstring on a 6-dimensional toroidal orbifold.

Remark on modular weights in low-energy effective field theory from type II string theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We revisit the modular weights in type IIB magnetized D-brane models. The simple analysis of wave function shows that the four-dimensional matter fields have the modular weight -1/2, but it may shift as one in type IIA intersecting D-brane models.

Two Micron‐Size Dark Dimensions
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract Two extra dimensions of micron scale might simultaneously address the gauge and cosmological hierarchy problems. In this paper various observational bounds in scenarios with one and two large extra dimensions are examined, to see if they are compatible with the micron scale.

The Landscape, the Swampland and the Era of Precision Cosmology
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 67, Issue 1-2, January-February 2019., 2019 Abstract We review the advanced version of the KKLT construction and pure de Sitter supergravity, involving a nilpotent multiplet, with regard to various conjectures that de Sitter state cannot exist in string theory. We explain why we consider these conjectures problematic and not well motivated, and why the recently proposed alternative string theory

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 1-2, February 2025.Abstract S. Gukov and C. Vafa proposed a characterization of rational N=(1,1)$N=(1,1)$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) in 1+1$1+1$ dimensions with Ricci‐flat Kähler target spaces in terms of the Hodge structure of the target space, extending an earlier observation by G. Moore.

Modeling Dark Sector in Horndeski Gravity at First‐Order Formalism
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 We investigate a cosmological scenario by finding solutions using first‐order formalism in the Horndeski gravity that constrains the superpotential and implies that no free choice of scalar potential is allowed. Despite this, we show that a de Sitter phase at late‐time cosmology can be realized, where the dark energy sector can be identified.

One loop phenomenology of type II string theory: intersecting d-branes and noncommutativity [PDF]
, 2007 We examine one loop amplitudes for open and closed strings in certain D-brane configurations, and investigate the consequences for phenomenology. Initially we consider open strings at D6-brane intersections.

Species Scale and Primordial Gravitational Waves
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract The species scale is a field‐dependent UV cut‐off for any effective field theory weakly coupled to gravity. In this letter, it is shown that in the context of inflationary cosmology, a detection of primordial gravitational waves will set an upper bound on the decay rate |Λs′/Λs|$|\Lambda ^{\prime }_s/\Lambda _s|$ of the species scale ...

Effective Natural Supersymmetry from the Yukawa Deflected Mediations
Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 The natural supersymmetry (SUSY) requires light (≤1 TeV) stop quarks, light sbottom quark, and gluinos. The first generation of squarks can be effectively larger than several TeV which does not introduce any hierarchy problem in order to escape the constraints from LHC.

The enhancon mechanism in string theory [PDF]
, 2002 The enhancon mechanism is a specific phenomenon in string theory which resolves a certain naked spacetime singularity arising in the supergravity description related to N = 2 supersymmetric pure gauge theory.
