The convex hull swampland distance conjecture and bounds on non-geodesics
The Swampland Distance Conjecture (SDC) restricts the geodesic distances that scalars can traverse in effective field theories as they approach points at infinite distance in moduli space.

Charge completeness and the massless charge lattice in F-theory models of supergravity
We prove that, for every 6D supergravity theory that has an F-theory description, the property of charge completeness for the connected component of the gauge group (meaning that all charges in the corresponding charge lattice are realized by massive or ...

Analytics of type IIB flux vacua and their mass spectra
We analyze the tree-level potential of type IIB flux compactifications in warped Calabi-Yau orientifolds, in regions of weak coupling and moderately large complex structure.

Type IIB flux compactifications with h 1,1 = 0
We revisit flux compactifications of type IIB string theory on ‘spaces’ dual to rigid Calabi-Yau manifolds. This rather unexplored part of the string landscapes harbors many interesting four-dimensional solutions, namely supersymmetric N $$ \mathcal{N} $$

On the Role of Torsion and Higher Forms in Off‐Shell Supergravity
Abstract The presence of a nonvanishing totally antisymmetric (super)torsion, equivalent to an axial vector, and higher forms in the “new minimal” and “old minimal” off‐shell formulations of N=1$\mathcal {N}=1$, D=4$D=4$ supergravity is elaborated. The geometric superspace approach and study both the geometric Lagrangian and the off‐shell closure of ...

Enhancement of Out‐of‐Plane Spin–Orbit Torque by Interfacial Modification
The oxidation in CuPt/ferromagnet interface is found to be able to enhance the out‐of‐plane (OOP) torque and associated spin–orbit torque (SOT) switching efficiency with remaining threefold rotational symmetry. The enhancement is independent of the device shapes, magnetic materials, or magnetization easy axis.

Mass Hierarchies and Quantum Gravity Constraints in DKMM‐refined KKLT
Abstract We carefully revisit the mass hierarchies for the KKLT scenario with an uplift term from an anti D3‐brane in a strongly warped throat. First, we derive the bound resulting from what is usually termed “the throat fitting into the bulk” directly from the Klebanov‐Strassler geometry.

Fake supersymmetry with tadpole potentials
We study tadpole potentials of non-supersymmetric strings, resorting to a first-order formalism known in the literature as fake supersymmetry. We present a detailed analysis for vacua with only gravity and the dilaton, displaying the obstructions that ...

Homotopy Transfer and Effective Field Theory II: Strings and Double Field Theory
Abstract We continue our study of effective field theory via homotopy transfer of L∞$L_\infty$‐algebras, and apply it to tree‐level non‐Wilsonian effective actions of the kind discussed by Sen in which the modes integrated out are comparable in mass to the modes that are kept. We focus on the construction of effective actions for string states at fixed
