Gauged 2-form symmetries in 6D SCFTs coupled to gravity (2021)
Journal Article
Braun, A. P., Larfors, M., & Oehlmann, P. (2021). Gauged 2-form symmetries in 6D SCFTs coupled to gravity. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021(12), Article 132. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12%282021%29132

We study six dimensional supergravity theories with superconformal sectors (SCFTs). Instances of such theories can be engineered using type IIB strings, or more generally F-Theory, which translates field theoretic constraints to geometry. Specificall...

Fibre-base duality of 5d KK theories (2021)
Journal Article
Braun, A. P., Chen, J., Haghighat, B., Sperling, M., & Yang, S. (2021). Fibre-base duality of 5d KK theories. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021(5), Article 200. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep05%282021%29200

We study circle compactifications of 6d superconformal field theories giving rise to 5d rank 1 and rank 2 Kaluza-Klein theories. We realise the resulting theories as M-theory compactifications on local Calabi-Yau 3-folds and match the prepotentials f... Read More about Fibre-base duality of 5d KK theories.

G 4 flux, algebraic cycles and complex structure moduli stabilization (2021)
Journal Article
Braun, A., & Valandro, R. (2021). G 4 flux, algebraic cycles and complex structure moduli stabilization. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021(1), Article 207. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282021%29207

We construct G4 fluxes that stabilize all of the 426 complex structure moduli of the sextic Calabi-Yau fourfold at the Fermat point. Studying flux stabilization usually requires solving Picard-Fuchs equations, which becomes unfeasible for models with...
