Vacua with Small Flux Superpotential
Mehmet Demirtas, Manki Kim, Liam McAllister +1
We describe a method for finding flux vacua of type IIB string theory in which the Gukov-Vafa-Witten superpotential is exponentially small. We present an example with $W_0 \approx…

Minimal Surfaces and Weak Gravity
Mehmet Demirtas, Cody Long, Liam McAllister +1
We show that the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) implies a nontrivial upper bound on the volumes of the minimal-volume cycles in certain homology classes that admit no calibrated rep…
