abstract

The state of the art in D-brane model building is briefly reviewed, focusing on recent achievements in the construction of D=4 N = 1 type II string vacua with semi-realistic gauge sectors. Such progress relies on a better understanding of the spectrum of BPS D-branes, the effective field theory obtained from them and the explicit construction of vacua. We first consider D-branes in standard Calabi-Yau compactifications, and then the more involved case of compactifications with fluxes. We discuss how the non-trivial interplay between D-branes and fluxes modifies the previous model-building rules, as well as provides new possibilities to connect string theory to particle physics.

F-theory flux vacua at large complex structure

hep-th · 2021-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

At large complex structure in F-theory, the F-term potential simplifies to V = Z^{AB} ρ_A ρ_B, yielding two families of flux vacua with all complex structure moduli fixed, one with bounded saxion vevs and one with unbounded vevs where N_flux factors into two integers.
