Open String Wavefunctions in Warped Compactifications
Fernando Marchesano, Paul McGuirk, Gary Shiu
We analyze the wavefunctions for open strings in warped compactifications, and compute the warped Kahler potential for the light modes of a probe D-brane. This analysis not only ap…
Minimal Simple de Sitter Solutions
Sheikh Shajidul Haque, Gary Shiu, Bret Underwood +1
We show that the minimal set of necessary ingredients to construct explicit, four-dimensional de Sitter solutions from IIA string theory at tree-level are O6-planes, non-zero Roman…
On Supersymmetric D7-branes in the Warped Deformed Conifold
Heng-Yu Chen, Peter Ouyang, Gary Shiu
We study the supersymmetric properties of D7-branes in the warped deformed conifold. We consider the -symmetry conditions on D7-branes in this specific warped background, taking…
Systematics of multi-field effects at the end of warped brane inflation
Heng-Yu Chen, Jinn-Ouk Gong, Gary Shiu
We investigate in the context of brane inflation the possibility of additional light scalar fields generating significant power spectrum and non-Gaussianities at the end of inflati…
Dynamics of Warped Flux Compactifications
Gary Shiu, Gonzalo Torroba, Bret Underwood +1
We discuss the four dimensional effective action for type IIB flux compactifications, and obtain the quadratic terms taking warp effects into account. The analysis includes both th…
