Supersymmetry breaking and stability in string vacua: Brane dynamics, bubbles and the swampland
I Basile - La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento, 2021 - Springer
We review some aspects of the dramatic consequences of supersymmetry breaking on
string vacua. In particular, we focus on the issue of vacuum stability in ten-dimensional string …

Stable nonsupersymmetric anti–de Sitter vacua of massive IIA supergravity
Stable nonsupersymmetric anti–de Sitter (AdS) vacua of string theory are widely believed
not to exist. In this Letter, we analytically compute the full bosonic Kaluza-Klein spectrum …
