We propose a variant of the KKLT (A)dS flux vacuum construction which does not require an antibrane to source the volume modulus. The strategy is to find nonzero local minima of the no-scale potential in the complex structure and dilaton directions in moduli space. The corresponding no-scale potential expanded about this point sources the volume modulus in the same way as does the antibrane of the KKLT construction. We exhibit explicit examples of such nonzero local minima of the no-scale potential in a simple toroidal orientifold model.

  1. Gravitational Waves from Multiple Cosmic Superstrings and the Overshoot Problem

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A string-theory model with three cosmic superstring species solves the modulus overshoot problem via gravitational-wave friction and predicts a high-frequency multi-peaked stochastic gravitational-wave spectrum.

  2. The String Theory Photoverse

    hep-th 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Massless string-theory hidden photons acquire dimension-six dipole couplings to SM fermions with suppression scale Λ = αM_s, converting dipole measurements into constraints on the string scale.

  3. Deep observations of the Type IIB flux landscape

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An enumeration algorithm for Type IIB flux vacua yields millions of explicit vacua in a two-modulus Calabi-Yau, exposing deviations from statistical predictions and a vacuum with |W0| about 5.5 x 10^-5.

  4. Uplifts in the Penumbra: Features of the Moduli Potential away from Infinite-Distance Boundaries

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the crossover region between the moduli-space interior and strict asymptotic boundaries, the flux potential of one complex structure modulus admits de Sitter uplifting minima and axion valleys with flattened potentials.
