Non-perturbative SQCD Superpotentials from String Instantons

Nikolas Akerblom, Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lust +2

The Affleck-Dine-Seiberg instanton generated superpotential for SQCD with Nf=Nc-1 flavours is explicitly derived from a local model of engineered intersecting D6-branes with a sing…

Adding flavour to the Polchinski-Strassler background

Riccardo Apreda, Johanna Erdmenger, Dieter Lust +1

As an extension of holography with flavour, we analyze in detail the embedding of a D7-brane probe into the Polchinski-Strassler gravity background, in which the breaking of confor…

Four-dimensional String Compactifications with D-Branes, Orientifolds and Fluxes

Ralph Blumenhagen, Boris Kors, Dieter Lust +1

This review article provides a pedagogical introduction into various classes of chiral string compactifications to four dimensions with D-branes and fluxes. The main concern is to…

Gaugino Condensates and D-terms from D7-branes

Michael Haack, Daniel Krefl, Dieter Lust +2

We investigate, at the microscopic level, the compatibility between D-term potentials from world-volume fluxes on D7-branes and non-perturbative superpotentials arising from gaugin…

Extremal non-BPS black holes and entropy extremization

Gabriel Lopes Cardoso, Viviane Grass, Dieter Lust +1

At the horizon, a static extremal black hole solution in N=2 supergravity in four dimensions is determined by a set of so-called attractor equations which, in the absence of higher…

On supersymmetric Minkowski vacua in IIB orientifolds

Daniel Krefl, Dieter Lust

Supersymmetric Minkowski vacua in IIB orientifold compactifications based on orbifolds with background fluxes and non-perturbative superpotentials are investigated. Especially, mic…
