Type IIA Moduli Stabilization
read the original abstract
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.

Scale-separated vacua with extended supersymmetry
First examples of scale-separated vacua with extended supersymmetry are constructed as circle compactifications of 4D massive IIA solutions with additional fluxes and sources.

Sharpened Dynamical Cobordism
Sharpened Dynamical Cobordism ties the allowed range of critical exponent δ to theory structure ξ, flagging obstructions from non-trivial cobordism charges that require new degrees of freedom.

Broken and restored: a holographic constraint for AdS vacua with orbifolds
Holographic constraint on AdS vacua is violated for Z2 orbifolds but restored by non-abelian extensions, implying O-planes cannot wrap cycles in distinct homology classes.
