abstract

We describe in detail how the spectrum of a single anti-D3-brane in four-dimensional orientifolded IIB string models reproduces precisely the field content of a nilpotent chiral superfield with the only physical component corresponding to the fermionic goldstino. In particular we explicitly consider a single anti-D3-brane on top of an O3-plane in warped throats, induced by $(2,1)$ fluxes. More general systems including several anti-branes and other orientifold planes are also discussed. This provides further evidence to the claim that non-linearly realized supersymmetry due to the presence of antibranes in string theory can be described by supersymmetric theories including nilpotent superfields. Implications to the KKLT and related scenarios of de Sitter moduli stabilization, to cosmology and to the structure of soft SUSY-breaking terms are briefly discussed.

Chiral global embedding of Fibre Inflation with $\overline{\rm D3}$ uplift

hep-th · 2024-12-11 · conditional · novelty 7.0

Explicit construction of a chiral global embedding of Fibre Inflation with anti-D3 uplift on an h^{1,1}=4 K3-fibered Calabi-Yau, using magnetised D7-branes, a Whitney brane, and O3-planes at a conifold tip, with viable parameter regions identified.

Moduli Stabilisation for ADD and the Dark Dimension Scenario

hep-th · 2026-06-17 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

A perturbative stabilization mechanism in the Large Volume Scenario for K3-fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds generates exponentially large 2D base volumes while keeping the 4D fibre small, enabling ADD or Dark Dimension limits with possible dS or quintessence vacua.
