Quantum obstructions for infinite distance limits -- Part I: obstructions
Lukas Kaufmann, Jeroen Monnee, Timo Weigand +1
We analyse quantum obstructions to classical infinite distance limits in four-dimensional string compactifications with N=1 supersymmetry. Such quantum effects signal a severe depa…
Quantum obstructions for infinite distance limits -- Part II: Kähler obstructions
Lukas Kaufmann, Jeroen Monnee, Timo Weigand +1
We continue our analysis of quantum corrections in the complex structure moduli space of four-dimensional Type IIB/F-theory compactifications with N=1 supersymmetry. We find that l…
K-Points and Type IIB/Heterotic Duality with NS5-Branes
Jeroen Monnee, Timo Weigand, Max Wiesner
We revisit type II limits in the vector multiplet moduli space of compactifications of Type IIB string theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds. These limits are special because they ca…
Emergent Strings in Type IIB Calabi--Yau Compactifications
Bjoern Hassfeld, Jeroen Monnee, Timo Weigand +1
We study infinite distance limits in the complex structure moduli space of Type IIB compactifications on Calabi--Yau threefolds, in light of the Emergent String Conjecture. We focu…
Physics and Geometry of Complex Structure Limits in Type IIB Calabi-Yau Compactifications
Jeroen Monnee, Timo Weigand, Max Wiesner
We provide a detailed geometric and physical interpretation of infinite distance limits in the complex structure moduli space of Type IIB compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds…
