We provide a user's guide to version 1.0 of the software package CYTools, which we designed to compute the topological data of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties. CYTools has strong capabilities in analyzing and triangulating polytopes, and can easily handle even the largest polytopes in the Kreuzer-Skarke list. We explain the main functions and the options that can be used to optimize them, including example computations that illustrate efficient handling of large numbers of polytopes. The software, installation instructions, and a Jupyter notebook tutorial can be found at https://cy.tools.

  1. New Type IIB Poly-instanton Effects and Axion Quintessence

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Deformation divisors can generate poly-instanton superpotential terms in type IIB Calabi-Yau orientifolds when O3-planes lie on the E3-brane, with explicit CY examples and an axion-quintessence construction matching t...

  2. Exploring Line Bundle Standard Models with Transformers

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    A Transformer trained by reinforcement learning generates heterotic line-bundle sums that satisfy anomaly-cancellation, stability, and chirality constraints, and its policy transfers usefully across Calabi-Yau geometries.

  3. Calabi-Yau Threefolds from Vex Triangulations

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    All fine regular triangulations of 4D reflexive polytopes—including non-FRST vex triangulations—yield smooth, birationally equivalent Calabi-Yau threefold hypersurfaces.

  4. Flux Vacua Near the Boundary of Large Complex Structure

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Near the boundary of large complex structure, the first worldsheet instanton can displace flux vacua significantly while higher instantons stay negligible, and such vacua are common in a bounded two-modulus scan.

  5. When minor issues matter: symmetries, pluralism, and polarization in similarity-based opinion dynamics

    physics.soc-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Even an arbitrarily small-weight issue can destabilize stable opinion states and massively slow convergence; concentrating importance on few issues raises polarization, while spreading it promotes pluralism.

  6. Axiverse Lampposts

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a hierarchical multi-axion theory with random couplings, axion field ranges shrink with 1/sqrt(N), generic axion–SM couplings are suppressed, but the QCD axion's coupling is unsuppressed.

  7. Constraining the axiverse with reionization

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Roughly 10 to 15 percent of explicit string theory axiverse models are disfavored by CMB reionization data unless reheating stayed below about 10^10 GeV.

  8. String Theory and Grand Unification Suggest a Sub-Microelectronvolt QCD Axion

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    String-theoretic axions consistent with grand unification and proton decay are predicted to have masses in the 3e-11 to 1e-8 eV window, with at most 47 axions in the Kreuzer-Skarke ensemble.

  9. Axions at the meV Crossroads: Theory, Cosmology, Astrophysics, and Experiments

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    The meV axion window is presented as a coherent, cross-validated search program in which string theory, stellar cooling, dark matter, and new detector concepts converge on the same mass range.
