De Sitter vacua — when are ‘subleading corrections’ really subleading?

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We consider various string-loop, warping and curvature corrections that are expected to appear in type IIB moduli stabilisation scenarios. It has recently been argued, in the context of strongly-warped LVS de Sitter vacua, that it is impossible to ...

On fluxes in the 19 Landau-Ginzburg model

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
In this paper we present a large class of flux backgrounds and solve the shortest vector problem in type IIB string theory on an orientifold of the 19 Landau-Ginzburg model.

The DNA of Calabi–Yau Hypersurfaces

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Genetic Algorithms are implemented for triangulations of four‐dimensional reflexive polytopes, which induce Calabi–Yau threefold hypersurfaces via Batyrev's construction. These algorithms are shown to efficiently optimize physical observables such as axion decay constants or axion–photon couplings in string theory compactifications.

Quantum GraviElectro Dynamics

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 1, January 2026.
The BRST invariant Lagrangian of the gravitationally interacting U(1)$U(1)$ gauge theory, namely the Quantum GraviElectro Dynamics (QGED). The Yan–Mills theory with the Hilbert–Einstein gravitational Lagrangian, namely the Yang–Mills–Utiyama (YMU) theory, is defined and quantised using the standard procedure. The theory is perturbatively renormalisable,

The gravitational sector of 2d (0, 2) F-theory vacua

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
F-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau fivefolds give rise to two-dimensional N = (0, 2) supersymmetric field theories coupled to gravity. We explore the dilaton supergravity defined by the moduli sector of such compactifications.

Moduli stabilization in asymptotic flux compactifications

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We present a novel strategy to systematically study complex-structure moduli stabilization in Type IIB and F-theory flux compactifications. In particular, we determine vacua in any asymptotic regime of the complex-structure moduli space by exploiting ...

Unification of Conformal and Fuzzy Gravities With Internal Interactions Resulting in SO(10) and a Possible Probe Through Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 9-10, October 2025.
Abstract The unification of conformal and fuzzy gravities with internal interactions is based on the facts that i) the tangent group of a curved manifold and the manifold itself do not necessarily have the same dimensions and ii) both gravitational theories considered here have been formulated in a gauge theoretic way.

De Sitter vacua in no-scale supergravity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
No-scale supergravity is the appropriate general framework for low-energy effective field theories derived from string theory. The simplest no-scale Kähler potential with a single chiral field corresponds to a compactification to flat Minkowski space ...

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 2903-2974, October 2025.
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

A universal tachyon in nearly no-scale de Sitter compactifications

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We investigate de Sitter solutions of N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supergravity with an F-term scalar potential near a no-scale Minkowski point, as they may in particular arise from flux compactifications in string theory.
