On Potentials from Fluxes
arXiv:hep-th/0307084 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.68.126001
Abstract
We discuss the compactification of type IIB supergravity with fluxes to generate a potential for the moduli. In particular we resolve an apparent conflict with the no-go theorem for de Sitter space. It is shown that a positive potential for certain moduli is possible in situations where the volume modulus has no critical point. We also point out that the derivation of the potential is strictly valid only for a trivial warp factor. To go beyond that seems to require the inclusion of all the Kaluza-Klein excitations. We end with a discussion of the stabilization of the volume modulus.
