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 unbounded vevs where N_flux factors into two integers.

abstract
We study compactifications of type IIA string theory on Calabi-Yau manifolds that are mirror to a subset of the type IIB LARGE-volume models. A combination of flux, alpha' corrections and non-perturbative effects stabilises the moduli in a non-supersymmetric AdS vacuum. This vacuum has the feature that the (ten-dimensional) string coupling is exponentially small which can naturally lead to a TeV supersymmetry breaking scale with an intermediate string scale. The AdS vacuum can be uplifted to a dS one through the introduction of D6 branes, and complex-structure modular inflation can be realised.

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 unbounded vevs where N_flux factors into two integers.
