High Energy Theory seminar: "Type IIB flux compactifications with h^{1,1}=0"
Timm Wrase (Lehigh University)
After reviewing a few concepts of the swampland program, I revisit type IIB flux compactifications that are mirror dual to type IIA on rigid Calabi-Yau manifolds. Recently, we found a variety of interesting new supersymmetric Minkowski and AdS solutions with unusual properties. I will discuss how these solutions fit into the web of swampland conjectures.
