We demonstrate that flux compactifications of type IIA string theory can classically stabilize all geometric moduli. For a particular orientifold background, we explicitly construct an infinite family of supersymmetric vacua with all moduli stabilized at arbitrarily large volume, weak coupling, and small negative cosmological constant. We obtain these solutions from both ten-dimensional and four-dimensional perspectives. For more general backgrounds, we study the equations for supersymmetric vacua coming from the effective superpotential and show that all geometric moduli can be stabilized by fluxes. We comment on the resulting picture of statistics on the landscape of vacua.

Towers of Operators in CFTs and Convexity Bounds at Large Charge
In 3d CFTs with moduli spaces, the projected large-charge tower obeys the convexity bound α0≤0, while the leading slope α1 has no universal bound besides α1≥0.

$\mathcal{N}=1$ spectra, cubic couplings and the rigid fate of DGKT
DGKT vacua satisfy the holographic cubic coupling constraint if and only if the Calabi-Yau threefold is rigid (h^{2,1}=0).

A Holographic Constraint on Scale Separation
A holographic consistency condition derived from large-N factorization requires vanishing cubic couplings for extremal-dimension operators and is non-trivially satisfied in DGKT AdS4 string vacua.

Banks-Zaks Stabilisation of Non-SUSY Strings
In non-supersymmetric strings, scale-separated AdS vacua can form when the accidentally small one-loop vacuum energy from massive states balances the two-loop Casimir energy of massless states, a Banks-Zaks-like fixed point.

Quantum corrections to DGKT and the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Quantum corrections from gaugino condensation and D2 instantons lift the DGKT D4-brane moduli space, making the branes self-attractive and putting the vacuum in tension with the membrane WGC.

F-theory flux vacua at large complex structure
At large complex structure in F-theory, the F-term potential simplifies to V = Z^{AB} ρ_A ρ_B, yielding two families of flux vacua with all complex structure moduli fixed, one with bounded saxion vevs and one with unb...

On the branes behind scale-separated AdS$_{3}$ flux vacua
Scale-separated supersymmetric AdS3 flux vacua of type IIB G2-orientifolds arise as the near-horizon region of codimension-one smeared D1-D5-KK5 intersections.

Gravitational index, black hole saddle degeneracy, and one-form symmetry
The |G|-fold degeneracy of supersymmetric AdS5 black hole index saddles is fixed by the flux-quantized BF coupling of the bulk one-form symmetry and persists unmodified in the decompactified black-brane limit.

Backtracking AdS flux vacua
Flux backtracking produces candidate brane-probe singularities for AdS flux vacua, including a new strongly coupled massive IIA singularity conjectured to be the brane picture of DGKT.

Warped G$_2$-throats in IIA and uplift dSillusions
Anti-D2 brane uplifting of classical AdS3 vacua in IIA on G2 orientifolds is forbidden by O6 tadpole constraints, so dS3 must rely on quantum corrections to no-scale Minkowski vacua.
