Flux compactification

MR Douglas, S Kachru - Reviews of modern physics, 2007 - APS
Recent work is reviewed in which compactifications of string and M theory are constructed in
which all scalar fields (moduli) are massive, and supersymmetry is broken with a small …

Dark energy: A brief review

M Li, XD Li, S Wang, Y Wang - Frontiers of Physics, 2013 - Springer
The problem of dark energy is briefly reviewed in both theoretical and observational aspects.
In the theoretical aspect, dark energy scenarios are classified into symmetry, anthropic …

Type IIA moduli stabilization

O DeWolfe, A Giryavets, S Kachru… - Journal of High Energy …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
We demonstrate that flux compactifications of type IIA string theory can classically stabilize
all geometric moduli. For a particular orientifold background, we explicitly construct an …

Topological data analysis for the string landscape

A Cole, G Shiu - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract Persistent homology computes the multiscale topology of a data set by using a
sequence of discrete complexes. In this paper, we propose that persistent homology may be …

Statistics on the heterotic landscape: Gauge groups and cosmological constants<? format?> of four-dimensional heterotic strings

KR Dienes - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2006 - APS
Recent developments in string theory have reinforced the notion that the space of stable
supersymmetric and nonsupersymmetric string vacua fills out a landscape whose features …

Life at the interface of particle physics and string theory

AN Schellekens - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2013 - APS
If the results of the first LHC run are not betraying us, many decades of particle physics are
culminating in a complete and consistent theory for all nongravitational physics: the standard …

Creation of a compact topologically nontrivial inflationary universe

A Linde - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
If inflation can occur only at the energy density V much smaller than the Planck density,
which is the case for many inflationary models based on string theory, then the probability of …

Hartle–Hawking wave-function for flux compactifications: The entropic principle

H Ooguri, C Vafa, E Verlinde - Letters in Mathematical Physics, 2005 - Springer
We argue that the topological string partition function, which has been known to correspond
to a wave-function, can be interpreted as an exact “wave-function of the universe” in the mini …

A new handle on de Sitter compactifications

A Saltman, E Silverstein - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct a large new class of de Sitter (and anti de Sitter) vacua of critical string theory
from flux compactifications on products of Riemann surfaces. In the construction, the leading …
