Weakly coupled de Sitter vacua with fluxes and the swampland

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
It was recently argued that the swampland distance conjecture rules out dS vacua at parametrically large field distances. We point out that this conclusion can in principle be avoided in the presence of large fluxes that are not bounded by a tadpole ...

Type IIB flux compactifications with h 1,1 = 0

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
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 $$ \mathcal{N} $$

Charge completeness and the massless charge lattice in F-theory models of supergravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
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

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
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.

Fake supersymmetry with tadpole potentials

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
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 ...

Symmetries of cosmological superstring vacua [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 1991
Abstract The concept of discrete scale-factor-duality transformations is extended to a full, continuous O(d, d) group. The action of the group transforms “cosmological” solutions of the low-energy, string-modified Einstein equations (including non-trivial dilaton and antisymmetric tensor fields) into other solutions, thus representing the natural ...

On the Role of Torsion and Higher Forms in Off‐Shell Supergravity

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 71, Issue 8-9, September 2023., 2023
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

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 23, 2023., 2023
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.

The convex hull swampland distance conjecture and bounds on non-geodesics

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
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.
