Flux Vacua Attractors in Type II on SU(3)xSU(3) Structure

Abstract

We summarize and extend our work on flux vacua attractors in generalized compactifications. After reviewing the attractor equations for the heterotic string on SU(3) structure manifolds, we study attractors for N=1 vacua in type IIA/B on SU(3)xSU(3) structure spaces. In the case of vanishing RR flux, we find attractor equations that encode Minkowski vacua only (and which correct a previous normalization error). In addition to our previous considerations, here we also discuss the case of nonzero RR flux and the possibility of attractors for AdS vacua.Comment: 10 pages, contribution to the proceedings of the 4th RTN workshop "Forces Universe", Varna, September 200
