Gauge-Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking in String Compactifications
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea, Shamit Kachru +1
We provide string theory examples where a toy model of a SUSY GUT or the MSSM is embedded in a compactification along with a gauge sector which dynamically breaks supersymmetry. We…
Integrable Spin Chains on the Conformal Moose
Darius Sadri, M. M. Sheikh-Jabbari
We consider N=1, D=4 superconformal U(N)^{pq} Yang-Mills theories dual to AdS_5xS^5/Z_pxZ_q orbifolds. We construct the dilatation operator of this superconformal gauge theory at o…
New Attractors and Area Codes
Alexander Giryavets
In this note we give multiple examples of the recently proposed New Attractors describing supersymmetric flux vacua and non-supersymmetric extremal black holes in IIB string theory…
Supersymmetry and Stability of Flux Vacua
Jose J. Blanco-Pillado, Renata Kallosh, Andrei Linde
We describe a modified KKLT mechanism of moduli stabilization in a supersymmetric Minkowski vacuum state. In this mechanism, supersymmetry ensures vacuum stability and positivity o…
Features of deSitter Vacua in M-Theory
Jonathan P. Hsu, Renata Kallosh, Navin Sivanandam
We compute the masses of all moduli in the unstable deSitter vacua arising in the toy model of cosmological M-theory flux compactifications on the G2 holonomy manifolds of [1]. The…
Complex/Symplectic Mirrors
Wu-yen Chuang, Shamit Kachru, Alessandro Tomasiello
We construct a class of symplectic non--Kaehler and complex non--Kaehler string theory vacua, extending and providing evidence for an earlier suggestion by Polchinski and Strominge…
