On Flux Quantization In M-Theory And The Effective Action
read the original abstract
The quantization law for the antisymmetric tensor field of $M$-theory contains a gravitational contribution not known previously. When it is included, the low energy effective action of $M$-theory, including one-loop and Chern-Simons contributions, is well-defined. The relation of $M$-theory to the $E_8\times E_8$ heterotic string greatly facilitates the analysis.

F-theory flux vacua at large complex structure
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 unb...
