Holographic gauge mediation via strongly coupled messengers
Paul McGuirk, Gary Shiu, Yoske Sumitomo
We consider a relative of semi-direct gauge mediation where the hidden sector exists at large 't Hooft coupling. Such scenarios can be difficult to describe using perturbative fiel…
Non-supersymmetric infrared perturbations to the warped deformed conifold
Paul McGuirk, Gary Shiu, Yoske Sumitomo
We analyze properties of non-supersymmetric isometry-preserving perturbations to the infrared region of the warped deformed conifold, i.e. the Klebanov Strassler solution. We discu…
Towards Classical de Sitter Solutions in String Theory
Ulf H. Danielsson, Sheikh Shajidul Haque, Gary Shiu +1
We investigate the type II string effective potential at tree-level and derive necessary ingredients for having de Sitter solutions in orientifold models with fluxes. Furthermore,…
On D3-brane Dynamics at Strong Warping
Heng-Yu Chen, Yu Nakayama, Gary Shiu
We study the dynamics of a D3 brane in generic IIB warped compactifications, using the Hamiltonian formulation discussed in arXiv:0805.3700 [hep-th]. Taking into account of both cl…
Large Primordial Trispectra in General Single Field Inflation
Xingang Chen, Bin Hu, Min-xin Huang +2
We compute the large scalar four-point correlation functions in general single field inflation models, where the inflaton Lagrangian is an arbitrary function of the inflaton and it…
Inflation on an Open Racetrack
Heng-Yu Chen, Ling-Yan Hung, Gary Shiu
We present a variant of warped D-brane inflation by incorporating multiple sets of holomorphically-embedded D7-branes involved in moduli stabilization with extent into a warped thr…
