D7-Brane Chaotic Inflation

Hebecker, Arthur, Kraus, Sebastian C., Witkowski, Lukas T.

Understand

We analyze string-theoretic large-field inflation in the regime of spontaneously-broken supergravity with conventional moduli stabilization by fluxes and non-perturbative effects.

The main ingredient is a shift-symmetric Kahler potential, supplemented by flux-induced shift symmetry breaking in the superpotential.
The central technical observation is that all these features are present for D7-brane position moduli in Type IIB orientifolds, allowing for a realization of the axion monodromy proposal in a controlled string theory compactification.
On the one hand, in the large complex structure regime the D7-brane position moduli inherit a shift symmetry from their mirror-dual Type IIA Wilson lines.
