Heterotic Instanton Superpotentials from Complete Intersection Calabi-Yau Manifolds
Evgeny Buchbinder, Andre Lukas, Burt Ovrut +1
We study Pfaffians that appear in non-perturbative superpotential terms arising from worldsheet instantons in heterotic theories. A result by Beasley and Witten shows that these in…

Evolving neural networks with genetic algorithms to study the String Landscape
Fabian Ruehle
We study possible applications of artificial neural networks to examine the string landscape. Since the field of application is rather versatile, we propose to dynamically evolve t…

One-loop Pfaffians and large-field inflation in string theory
Fabian Ruehle, Clemens Wieck
We study the consistency of large-field inflation in low-energy effective field theories of string theory. In particular, we focus on the stability of Kähler moduli in the particul…
