We analyze global anomalies for elementary Type II strings in the presence of D-branes. Global anomaly cancellation gives a restriction on the D-brane topology. This restriction makes possible the interpretation of D-brane charge as an element of K-theory.

    hep-th 2024-12 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 viabl...

  2. Anomalies in family unification models from bordism classification

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Family unification models from E7 cosets have no global sigma model anomalies because the torsion parts of their bordism groups vanish, as computed via the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, including when isotropy ...

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Type IIA orientifold model with D6-branes stabilizes moduli via STU and KL, predicts axion-neutralino dark matter, and uses four-form flux to address strong CP problem.

  4. Assisted Fibre Inflation in Perturbative LVS

    hep-th 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Multi-field fibre inflation in perturbative LVS uses collective dynamics of several moduli to achieve viable cosmology with sub-Planckian individual field ranges given by total range divided by sqrt(n).

  5. On Global Embedding of Assisted Fibre Inflation

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Assisted multi-fibre inflation distributes the required field range across several moduli in global CY orientifolds, overcoming single-field Kähler cone obstructions to realize viable inflation.
