Towards the Non-Perturbative Completion of 4d N=1 Effective Theories of Gravity

Gonzalo F. Casas, Max Wiesner

We show that four-dimensional effective theories of gravity obtained from string compactifications require a non-perturbative completion, as additional light states…

Moduli Self-Fixing

Gonzalo F. Casas, Luis E. Ibáñez

In Quantum Gravity (QG), large moduli values lead to towers of exponentially light states, making the QG cut-off field-dependent. In 4D supersymmetric (SUSY) theories, this cut-off…

On small Dirac Neutrino Masses in String Theory

Gonzalo F. Casas, Luis E. Ibáñez, Fernando Marchesano

We study how tiny Dirac neutrino masses consistent with experimental constraints can arise in string theory SM-like vacua. We use as a laboratory 4d type IIA Calabi--Y…

Modular Invariant Starobinsky Inflation and the Species Scale

Gonzalo F. Casas, Luis E. Ibáñez

Potentials in cosmological inflation often involve scalars with trans-Planckian ranges. As a result, towers of states become massless and their presence pushes the fundamental scal…

Yukawa Couplings at Infinite Distance and Swampland Towers in Chiral Theories

Gonzalo F. Casas, Luis E. Ibáñez, Fernando Marchesano

We study limits of vanishing Yukawa couplings of 4d chiral matter fields in Quantum Gravity, using as a laboratory type IIA orientifolds with D6-branes. In these theories chiral fe…

Torsion in cohomology and dimensional reduction

Gonzalo F. Casas, Fernando Marchesano, Matteo Zatti

Conventional wisdom dictates that factors in the integral cohomology group of a compact manifold cannot be computed via smooth -forms…
