Small Flux Superpotentials for Type IIB Flux Vacua Close to a Conifold
Rafael Álvarez-García, Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann +1
We generalize the recently proposed mechanism by Demirtas, Kim, McAllister and Moritz arXiv:1912.10047 for the explicit construction of type IIB flux vacua with to the…
KKLT and the Swampland Conjectures
Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann, Daniel Klaewer +2
Recently, various swampland conjectures have been proposed that every UV complete effective field theory should satisfy. In particular, these deal with the properties of AdS and dS…
dS Spaces and Brane Worlds in Exotic String Theories
Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann, Andriana Makridou +2
We investigate string-phenomenological questions of Hull's exotic superstring theories with Euclidean strings/branes and multiple times. These are known to be plagued by pathologie…
