abstract
We revisit moduli stabilization on Calabi-Yau manifolds with a discrete symmetry. Invariant fluxes allow for a truncation to a symmetric locus in complex structure moduli space and hence drastically reduce the moduli stabilization problem in its dimensionality. This makes them an ideal testing ground for the tadpole conjecture. For a large class of fourfolds, we show that an invariant flux with non-zero on-shell superpotential on the symmetric locus necessarily stabilizes at least 60% of the complex structure moduli. In case this invariant flux induces a relatively small tadpole, it is thus possible to bypass the bound predicted by the tadpole conjecture at these special loci. As an example, we discuss a Calabi-Yau hypersurface with $h^{3,1}=3878$ and show that we can stabilize at least 4932 real moduli with a flux that induces M2-charge $N_\text{flux} =3$.

AI usage in string theory, a case study: String Vacua in the Interior of Moduli Space
The paper reviews how higher-order flux superpotential terms stabilize massless fields in specific Landau-Ginzburg models, yielding isolated Minkowski vacua that test tadpole and massless Minkowski conjectures.
