On classical de Sitter solutions in higher dimensions

Thomas Van Riet

We derive necessary criteria for the existence of classical, meta-stable, de Sitter solutions in flux compactifications of type II supergravity down to dimensions higher than four.…

(Anti-)Brane backreaction beyond perturbation theory

Johan Blåbäck, Ulf H. Danielsson, Daniel Junghans +3

We improve on the understanding of the backreaction of anti-D6-branes in a flux background that is mutually BPS with D6-branes. This setup is analogous to the study of the backreac…

Einstein Branes

Wissam Chemissany, Bert Janssen, Thomas Van Riet

We generalise the standard, flat p-brane solutions sourced by a dilaton and a form field, by taking the worldvolume to be a curved Einstein space, such as (anti-)de Sitter space. O…

The problematic backreaction of SUSY-breaking branes

Johan Blåbäck, Ulf H. Danielsson, Daniel Junghans +3

In this paper we investigate the localisation of SUSY-breaking branes which, in the smeared approximation, support specific non-BPS vacua. We show, for a wide class of boundary con…

De Sitter hunting in a classical landscape

Ulf H. Danielsson, Sheikh S. Haque, Paul Koerber +3

We elaborate on the construction of de Sitter solutions from IIA orientifolds of SU(3)-structure manifolds that solve the 10-dimensional equations of motion at tree-level in the ap…

Brane solutions and integrability: a status report

W. Chemissany, P. Fré, J. Rosseel +3

We review the status of the integrability and solvability of the geodesics equations of motion on symmetric coset spaces that appear as sigma models of supergravity theories when r…
