We consider string theory compactifications of the form AdS4 x M6 with orientifold six-planes, where M6 is a six-dimensional compact space that is either a nilmanifold or a coset. For all known solutions of this type we obtain the four-dimensional N=1 low energy effective theory by computing the superpotential, the Kaehler potential and the mass spectrum for the light moduli. For the nilmanifold examples we perform a cross-check on the result for the mass spectrum by calculating it alternatively from a direct Kaluza-Klein reduction and find perfect agreement. We show that in all but one of the coset models all moduli are stabilized at the classical level. As an application we show that all but one of the coset models can potentially be used to bypass a recent no-go theorem against inflation in type IIA theory.

  1. Quantum corrections to DGKT and the Weak Gravity Conjecture

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Quantum corrections from gaugino condensation and D2 instantons lift the DGKT D4-brane moduli space, making the branes self-attractive and putting the vacuum in tension with the membrane WGC.

  2. Bordisms between 9d type IIB supergravities and commutator widths of duality groups

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Proposes a refinement of the Swampland Cobordism Conjecture for Ω1(BG) with duality bundle G, where diverging commutator width of G requires infinitely many duality defects to realize monodromies via gravitational solitons.

  3. Instabilities in scale-separated Casimir vacua

    hep-th 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Casimir-stabilized AdS vacua with parametric scale separation in supergravity exhibit perturbative and non-perturbative instabilities under deformations.
