D-brane Deconstructions in IIB Orientifolds
Andres Collinucci, Frederik Denef, Mboyo Esole
With model building applications in mind, we collect and develop basic techniques to analyze the landscape of D7-branes in type IIB compact Calabi-Yau orientifolds, in three differ…

Black hole bound states in AdS_3 x S^2
Jan de Boer, Frederik Denef, Sheer El-Showk +2
We systematically construct the geometries dual to the 1+1 dimensional (0,4) conformal field theories that arise in the low-energy description of wrapped M5-branes in S^1 x CY_3 co…
