We propose a new mechanism for obtaining de Sitter vacua in type IIB string theory compactified on (orientifolded) Calabi-Yau manifolds similar to those recently studied by Kachru, Kallosh, Linde and Trivedi (KKLT). dS vacuum appears in KKLT model after uplifting an AdS vacuum by adding an anti-D3-brane, which explicitly breaks supersymmetry. We accomplish the same goal by adding fluxes of gauge fields within the D7-branes, which induce a D-term potential in the effective 4D action. In this way we obtain dS space as a spontaneously broken vacuum from a purely supersymmetric 4D action. We argue that our approach can be directly extended to heterotic string vacua, with the dilaton potential obtained from a combination of gaugino condensation and the D-terms generated by anomalous U(1) gauge groups.

    Adding a base-modulus redefinition to fibre inflation in perturbative LVS shifts (ns, r) into ACT-allowed territory and yields an axion quintessence companion.

  5. Three-Field String Inflation with Perturbative Corrections: Dynamics and Implications

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A three-field inflation model is constructed in a perturbative large-volume string setup where loop and higher-derivative corrections stabilize the moduli and produce a two-stage inflationary trajectory.

    hep-ph 2025-11 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The paper presents a supergravity model where anomaly cancellation and U(1)_X charges generate quark/lepton hierarchies and a flavored QCD axion, but the charge assignments and axion scale are fitted rather than derived.
