Non-Kahler Resolved Conifold, Localized Fluxes in M-Theory and Supersymmetry
Keshav Dasgupta, Maxim Emelin, Evan McDonough
The known supergravity solution for wrapped D5-branes on the two-cycle of a Kahler resolved conifold is in general ISD but not supersymmetric, with the supersymmetry being broken b…
Backreaction and Stochastic Effects in Single Field Inflation
Laurence Perreault Levasseur, Evan McDonough
The formalism of stochastic inflation is a powerful tool for analyzing the backreaction of cosmological perturbations, and making precise predictions for inflationary observables.…
de Sitter Vacua in Type IIB String Theory: Classical Solutions and Quantum Corrections
Keshav Dasgupta, Rhiannon Gwyn, Evan McDonough +2
We revisit the classical theory of ten-dimensional two-derivative gravity coupled to fluxes, scalar fields, D-branes, anti D-branes and Orientifold-planes. We show that such set-up…
