New Examples of Flux Vacua

Understand

Type IIB toroidal orientifolds are among the earliest examples of flux vacua.

• By applying T-duality, we construct the first examples of massive IIA flux vacua with Minkowski space-times, along with new examples of type IIA flux vacua.
• The backgrounds are surprisingly simple with no four-form flux at all.
• They serve as illustrations of the ingredients needed to build type IIA and massive IIA solutions with scale separation.
