Four-dimensional String Compactifications with D-Branes, Orientifolds and Fluxes
Ralph Blumenhagen, Boris Kors, Dieter Lust +1
This review article provides a pedagogical introduction into various classes of chiral string compactifications to four dimensions with D-branes and fluxes. The main concern is to…
Extra-weakly Interacting Dark Matter
Daniel Feldman, Boris Kors, Pran Nath
We investigate a new type of dark matter with couplings to ordinary matter naturally suppressed by at least one order of magnitude compared to weak interactions. Despite the extra-…
Anomaly Cancellation in Supergravity with Fayet-Iliopoulos Couplings
Henriette Elvang, Daniel Z. Freedman, Boris Kors
We review and clarify the cancellation conditions for gauge anomalies which occur when N=1, D=4 supergravity is coupled to a Kahler non-linear sigma-model with gauged isometries an…
Kahler Anomalies in Supergravity and Flux Vacua
Daniel Z. Freedman, Boris Kors
We review the subject of Kahler anomalies in gauged supergravity, emphasizing that field equations are inconsistent when the Kahler potential is non-invariant under gauge transform…
On Volume Stabilization by Quantum Corrections
Marcus Berg, Michael Haack, Boris Kors
We discuss prospects for stabilizing the volume modulus of N=1 supersymmetric type IIB orientifold compactifications using only perturbative corrections to the Kahler potential. Co…
String Loop Corrections to Kahler Potentials in Orientifolds
Marcus Berg, Michael Haack, Boris Kors
We determine one-loop string corrections to Kahler potentials in type IIB orientifold compactifications with either N=1 or N=2 supersymmetry, including D-brane moduli, by evaluatin…
