On moduli and effective theory of N = 1 warped flux compactifications
نویسنده
چکیده
The moduli space of N = 1 type II warped compactions to flat space with generic internal fluxes is studied. Using the underlying integrable generalized complex structure that characterizes these vacua, the different deformations are classified by H-twisted generalized cohomologies and identified with chiral and linear multiplets of the effective four-dimensional theory. The Kähler potential for chiral fields corresponding to classically flat moduli is discussed. As an application of the general results, type IIB warped Calabi-Yau compactifications and other SU(3)-structure subcases are considered in more detail. e-mail: [email protected]

Freezing of Moduli with Fluxes in Three Dimensions
We study warped compactifications to three dimensions, realized as an orientifold of type IIA string theory on T . By turning on 3and 4-form fluxes on the torus in a supersymmetric way, we generate a potential for the moduli fields. We present various flux configurations with N = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 supersymmetries and count the number of moduli in each case. In particular, we show that there are ...
متن کاملSupersymmetry breaking with zero vacuum energy in M-theory flux compactifications.
An attractive mechanism to break supersymmetry in vacua with zero vacuum energy arose in E(8) x E(8) heterotic models with hidden sector gaugino condensate. An H flux balances the exponentially small condensate on shell and fixes the complex structure moduli. At quantum level this balancing is, however, obstructed by the quantization of the H flux. We show that the warped flux compactification ...
متن کاملNonsupersymmetric brane vacua in stabilized compactifications
We derive the equations for the nonsupersymmetric vacua of D3-branes in the presence of nonperturbative moduli stabilization in type IIB flux compactifications, and solve and analyze them in the case of two particular 7-brane embeddings at the bottom of the warped deformed conifold. In the limit of large volume and long throat, we obtain vacua by imposing a constraint on the 7-brane embedding. ...
متن کاملBuilding MSSM Flux Vacua
We construct N = 1 and N = 0 chiral four-dimensional vacua of flux compactification in Type IIB string theory. These vacua have the common features that they are free of tadpole instabilities (both NSNS and RR) even for models with N = 0 supersymmetry. In addition, the dilaton/complex structure moduli are stabilised and the supergravity background metric is warped. We present an example in whic...
متن کاملN = 3 Warped Compactifications
Orientifolds with three-form flux provide some of the simplest string examples of warped compactification. In this paper we show that some models of this type have the unusual feature of D = 4, N = 3 spacetime supersymmetry. We discuss their construction and low energy physics. Although the local form of the moduli space is fully determined by supersymmetry, to find its global form requires a c...
