Les Houches Lectures on Constructing String Vacua
Frederik Denef
These lectures give a detailed introduction to constructing and analyzing string vacua suitable for phenomenological model building, with particular emphasis on F-theory flux vacua…
Physics of String Flux Compactifications
Frederik Denef, Michael R. Douglas, Shamit Kachru
We provide a qualitative review of flux compactifications of string theory, focusing on broad physical implications and statistical methods of analysis.
Freund-Rubin Revisited
B. S. Acharya, F. Denef, C. Hofman +1
We utilise the duality between M theory and Type IIA string theory to show the existence of Freund-Rubin compactifications of M theory on 7-manifolds with singularities supporting…
(Dis)assembling Special Lagrangians
Frederik Denef
We explain microscopically why split attractor flows, known to underlie certain stationary BPS solutions of four dimensional N=2 supergravity, are the relevant data to describe wra…
On the correspondence between D-branes and stationary supergravity solutions of type II Calabi-Yau compactifications
Frederik Denef
In this talk, I review how four dimensional stationary supergravity solutions that are more general than spherically symmetric black holes emerge naturally in the low energy descri…
New solutions to an old equation
Frederik Denef, Joris Raeymaekers, Walter Troost
We present a brief historical overview of the classical theory of a radiating point charge, described by the Lorentz-Dirac equation. A recent development is the discovery of tunnel…
