The Quasicrystalline String Landscape
read the original abstract
In this work we investigate a largely unexplored non-geometric corner of the string landscape: the quasicrystalline orbifolds. These exist at special points of the Narain moduli leading to frozen moduli and large quantum symmetries. Here we complete the classification and construction of quasicrystalline Narain lattices and use this to explore supersymmetric compactifications in $4\leq D\leq 6$ and with $4\leq Q\leq 16$ supercharges, leading to novel theories including theories with large quantum symmetries at all points in the moduli space. We anticipate these constructions will have many applications and in subsequent papers we apply these techniques to construct non-geometric F-theory models as well as new non-supersymmetric tachyon free models. Similarly these constructions can lead to constructing exotic matter representations in the string landscape.

Asymmetric orbifolds with vanishing one-loop vacuum energy
Non-supersymmetric type II asymmetric orbifolds with Z_k x Z_k Abelian point groups (k=2,3,4) admit vanishing one-loop vacuum energy via sector-wise conservation of a supercharge-like operator.

Bounds on Discrete Gauge Symmetries in Supergravity
Upper bounds are placed on the order of enhanced discrete gauge symmetries in supersymmetric supergravity theories with 8 or more supercharges, with some bounds saturated by string theory examples.

Dark energy from string theory: an introductory review
String theory imposes constraints on dark energy but permits various construction attempts for de Sitter vacua and single-field exponential quintessence models despite obstructions.
