Kahler Independence of the G2-MSSM
The G2-MSSM is a model of particle physics coupled to moduli fields with
interesting phenomenology both for colliders and astrophysical experiments. In
this paper we consider a more general model - whose moduli Kahler potential is
a completely arbitrary G2-holonomy Kahler potential and whose matter Kahler
potential is also more general. We prove that the vacuum structure and spectrum
of BSM particles is largely unchanged in this much more general class of
theories. In particular, gaugino masses are still supressed relative to the
gravitino mass and moduli masses. We also consider the effects of higher order
corrections to the matter Kahler potential and find a connection between the
nature of the LSP and flavor effects.Comment: Final version, matches the version published in JHE
Smart Hospitality and Secure Tourism Management using Blockchain Technology: BESHosTM Approach
Throughout the age of 5G technology, the majority of contactless banking is made via software that is enabled by a wide range of financial platforms. Several alternative financing channels provide access to a variety of services. The opportunity for hackers to engage in nefarious behaviour such as payment account hacking, identity theft, and payment system assaults stages of clearances with e-tourism, monetary information is kept in a database. Payment issues can be caused by a centralised cloud server. Throughout the periods of heavy congestion, the abovementioned problems are solvable by utilising a decentralised system like blockchain, it allows for the maintenance of trustworthiness between distinct groups of financial institutions, tour companies, airways, and trains are examples of consumers. Cruise ships, accommodations, cafes, as well as regional cabs are all available. Inspired mostly by following the foregoing debate, we suggest the blockchain Enables Secure Smart Hospitality and Tourism Management (BESHosTM) model
Tourism Decision Making System & Auto Guidance Technique using Data analytics
A unique Tourism Decision Making System TDMS) describes and evaluates the evaluation of research and developments in information technology meant for pronouncement sustain as well as examination during the sector of visiting the attractions. Individuals in the tourism sector are classified according to their decision-making technologies. The current trends and growth directions of choice help technologies were analysed for visitors from various advertising categories. The potential to provide customising, augmentation, and help for visitors at all phases of their trips by integrating modern automated approaches with GIS capabilities demonstrates the need for breakthroughs in digital advanced analytics
Heterotic strings on G_2 orbifolds
We study compactification of heterotic strings to three dimensions on
orbifolds of G_2 holonomy. We consider the standard embedding and show that the
gauge group is broken from E_8 x E_8 or SO(32) to F_4 x E_8 or SO(25)
respectively. We also compute the spectrum of massless states and compare with
the results obtained from reduction of the 10-dimensional fields. Non-standard
embeddings are discussed briefly. For type II compactifications we verify that
IIB and IIA have equal massless spectrum.Comment: LaTex, 21 page
Symmetries of Abelian Orbifolds
Using the Polya Enumeration Theorem, we count with particular attention to
C^3/Gamma up to C^6/Gamma, abelian orbifolds in various dimensions which are
invariant under cycles of the permutation group S_D. This produces a collection
of multiplicative sequences, one for each cycle in the Cycle Index of the
permutation group. A multiplicative sequence is controlled by its values on
prime numbers and their pure powers. Therefore, we pay particular attention to
orbifolds of the form C^D/Gamma where the order of Gamma is p^alpha. We propose
a generalization of these sequences for any D and any p.Comment: 75 pages, 13 figures, 30 table
Counting Orbifolds
We present several methods of counting the orbifolds C^D/Gamma. A
correspondence between counting orbifold actions on C^D, brane tilings, and
toric diagrams in D-1 dimensions is drawn. Barycentric coordinates and scaling
mechanisms are introduced to characterize lattice simplices as toric diagrams.
We count orbifolds of C^3, C^4, C^5, C^6 and C^7. Some remarks are made on
closed form formulas for the partition function that counts distinct orbifold
actions.Comment: 69 pages, 9 figures, 24 tables; minor correction
The problematic backreaction of SUSY-breaking branes
In this paper we investigate the localisation of SUSY-breaking branes which,
in the smeared approximation, support specific non-BPS vacua. We show, for a
wide class of boundary conditions, that there is no flux vacuum when the branes
are described by a genuine delta-function. Even more, we find that the smeared
solution is the unique solution with a regular brane profile. Our setup
consists of a non-BPS AdS_7 solution in massive IIA supergravity with smeared
anti-D6-branes and fluxes T-dual to ISD fluxes in IIB supergravity.Comment: 27 pages, Latex2e, 5 figure
On The Stability Of Non-Supersymmetric AdS Vacua
We consider two infinite families of Non-Supersymmetric vacua, called
Type 2) and Type 3) vacua, that arise in massive IIA supergravity with flux. We
show that both families are perturbatively stable. We then examine
non-perturbative decays of these vacua to other supersymmetric and
non-supersymmetric vacua mediated by instantons in the thin wall
approximation. We find that many decays are ruled out since the tension of the
interpolating domain wall is too big compared to the energy difference in AdS
units. In fact, within our approximations no decays of Type 2) vacua are
allowed, although some decays are only marginally forbidden. This can be
understood in terms of a "pairing symmetry" in the landscape which relate Type
2) vacua with supersymmetric ones of the same energy.Comment: 50 pages, Minor changes in section 2.2.
Compactification on negatively curved manifolds
We show that string/M theory compactifications to maximally symmetric
space-times using manifolds whose scalar curvature is everywhere negative, must
have significant warping, large stringy corrections, or both.Comment: 18 pages, JHEP3.cl
M-theory and Type IIA Flux Compactifications
We consider compactifications of M-theory and type IIA string theory to four
dimensions. For Minkowski space-time, a supergravity no-go theorem forbids flux
supported in the internal space. We show how to evade this no-go theorem by
exhibiting new sources of brane charge: in string theory, the basic physical
phenomenon is the generation of new brane charges from D-branes in transverse
fluxes. In M-theory, there is a new source of M5-brane charge from novel higher
derivative couplings that involve fluxes as well as curvatures. We present some
explicit orientifold examples with both N=1 and N=2 space-time supersymmetry.
Finally, we explain the status of massive type IIA flux compactifications.Comment: 36 pages, LaTeX; references adde
