Is inflation from unwinding fluxes IIB?
Fridrik Freyr Gautason, Marjorie Schillo, Thomas Van Riet
In this paper we argue that the mechanism of unwinding inflation is naturally present in warped compactifications of type IIB string theory with local throats. The unwinding of flu…
Unstoppable brane-flux decay of branes
U. H. Danielsson, F. F. Gautason, T. Van Riet
We investigate branes inside a flux throat that carries D6 charges with the 3-form flux quantum and the Romans mass. We find that wi…
Minkowski flux vacua of type II supergravities
David Andriot, Johan Blåbäck, Thomas Van Riet
We study flux compactifications of 10d type II supergravities to 4d Minkowski space-time, supported by parallel orientifold Op-planes with 3 p 8. With some restrictio…
Comments on fake supersymmetry
Juan Diaz Dorronsoro, Brecht Truijen, Thomas Van Riet
Flat domain walls and spherical black holes are solutions to coupled second-order ODE's of the Hamiltonian form. Hamilton-Jacobi theory then implies that first-order flow equations…
