We describe a new class of supersymmetric string compactifications to 4d Minkowski space. These solutions involve type II strings propagating on (orientifolds of) non Calabi-Yau spaces in the presence of background NS and RR fluxes. The simplest examples have descriptions as cosets, generalizing the three-dimensional nilmanifold. They can also be thought of as twisted tori. We derive a formula for the (super)potential governing the light fields, which is generated by the fluxes and certain ``twists'' in the geometry. Detailed consideration of an example also gives strong evidence that in some cases, these exotic geometries are related by smooth transitions to standard Calabi-Yau or G2 compactifications of M-theory.

  1. Micron-sized Extra Dimensions and Primordial Black Holes: Charged, Rotating, and Memory Burdened

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Six-dimensional primordial black holes with memory burden effects can survive as light dark matter in a two-extra-dimension model at the 10 TeV scale, producing high-multiplicity thermal events at future colliders.

  2. Towards a String Realization of the Dark Dimension via T-folds

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Scherk-Schwarz T-fold compactification is engineered so that, along a selected runaway trajectory, the scalar potential scales as V proportional to m_KK^4, as required by the Dark Dimension Scenario.

  3. Three-Field String Inflation with Perturbative Corrections: Dynamics and Implications

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A three-field inflation model is constructed in a perturbative large-volume string setup where loop and higher-derivative corrections stabilize the moduli and produce a two-stage inflationary trajectory.
