F-theory flux vacua at large complex structure

F Marchesano, D Prieto, M Wiesner - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We compute the flux-induced F-term potential in 4d F-theory compactifications at
large complex structure. In this regime, each complex structure field splits as an axionic field …

JAXVacua—a framework for sampling string vacua

A Dubey, S Krippendorf, A Schachner - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract Moduli stabilisation in string compactifications with many light scalars remains a
major blind-spot in the string landscape. In these regimes, analytic methods cease to work …

The magnitude of the vacuum expectation value of the Gukov‐Vafa‐Witten superpotential| W
0| |W_0| plays a central role in the phenomenology of type IIB flux compactifications. Recent …

Flux vacua with approximate flat directions

M Cicoli, M Licheri, R Mahanta, A Maharana - Journal of High Energy …, 2022 - Springer
A bstract We present a novel method to obtain type IIB flux vacua with flat directions at tree
level. We perform appropriate choices of flux quanta that induce relations between the flux …

Deep observations of the Type IIB flux landscape

A Chauhan, M Cicoli, S Krippendorf… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2025 - arxiv.org
We present deep observations in targeted regions of the string landscape through a
combination of analytic and dedicated numerical methods. Specifically, we devise an …

Scale hierarchies near the conifold
