We consider type II string theory in space-time backgrounds which admit eight supercharges and can be characterized by the existence of an SU(3) x SU(3) structure. We show that the couplings of such backgrounds strongly resemble the couplings of four-dimensional N=2 supergravities and precisely coincide with the N=2 couplings after an appropriate Kaluza-Klein reduction. Specifically we show that the moduli space of metrics admits a special Kahler geometry with Kahler potentials given by the Hitchin functionals. Furthermore we explicitly compute the N=2 version of the superpotential from the transformation law of the gravitinos, and find its N=1 counterpart.

Navigating string theory field space with geometric flows
The authors define a flow-based distance for flux-supported internal spaces, modify the Ricci Flow Conjecture so towers of states appear only at fixed points at infinite distance, and construct flows for type II and 1...

de Sitter Vacua from Ten Dimensions
Gaugino condensation on D7-branes plus anti-D3-branes produce a ten-dimensional stress-energy that exactly reproduces the KKLT four-dimensional scalar potential and curvature.

K\"ahler moduli stabilization from ten dimensions
In supersymmetric AdS4 string compactifications, the cosmological constant keeps the D7-brane four-cycle at finite size, and matching near and far from the brane reproduces, up to an undetermined coefficient, the KKLT...
