Large-volume flux compactifications: moduli spectrum and D3/D7 soft supersymmetry breaking

Abstract: We present an explicit calculation of the spectrum of a general class of string models, corresponding to Calabi-Yau flux compactifications with h 1,2 > h 1,1 > 1 with leading perturbative and non-perturbative corrections, in which all geometric moduli are stabilised as in hep-th/0502058. The volume is exponentially large, leading to a range of string scales from the Planck mass to the TeV scale, realising for the first time the large extra dimensions scenario in string theory. We provide a general analysis of … Show more

“…The flat directions have their origins in the no-scale property of the Kähler potential and are generic for IIB Kähler moduli, as is the appearance of instanton-generated nonperturbative superpotentials. The scenario is embedded in the exponentially large volume compactifications of [13,14] and requires h 2,1 > h 1,1 and h 1,1 > 2. This last requirement is necessary to ensure that the volume is stabilised during inflation.…”

“…The necessary volumes of O(10 5 − 10 7 ) in string units can be obtained by natural choices of the exponential parameters a i (a ∼ 2π 3 in the simplest cases) [14].…”
