Black Hole Attractors and Pure Spinors
Jonathan P. Hsu, Alexander Maloney, Alessandro Tomasiello
We construct black hole attractor solutions for a wide class of N=2 compactifications. The analysis is carried out in ten dimensions and makes crucial use of pure spinor techniques…
Features of deSitter Vacua in M-Theory
Jonathan P. Hsu, Renata Kallosh, Navin Sivanandam
We compute the masses of all moduli in the unstable deSitter vacua arising in the toy model of cosmological M-theory flux compactifications on the G2 holonomy manifolds of [1]. The…
D3/D7 Brane Inflation and Semilocal Strings
Keshav Dasgupta, Jonathan P. Hsu, Renata Kallosh +2
Among the inflationary models based on string theory, the D3/D7 model has the advantage that the flatness of the inflaton potential can be protected even with moduli stabilization.…
Volume Stabilization and the Origin of the Inflaton Shift Symmetry in String Theory
Jonathan P. Hsu, Renata Kallosh
The main problem of inflation in string theory is finding the models with a flat potential, consistent with stabilization of the volume of the compactified space. This can be achie…
On Brane Inflation With Volume Stabilization
Jonathan P. Hsu, Renata Kallosh, Sergey Prokushkin
The distance between BPS branes in string theory corresponds to a flat direction in the effective potential. Small deviations from supersymmetry may lead to a small uplifting of th…
