Understand

Flux compactification of string theory generates an ensemble with a large number of vacua called the landscape.

By using the statistics of various properties of low-energy effective theories in the string landscape, one can therefore hope to provide a scientific foundation to the notion of naturalness.
This article discusses how to answer such questions of practical interest by using flux compactification of F-theory.
It is found that the distribution is approximately in a factorized form given by the distribution of the choice of 7-brane gauge group, that of the number of generations $N_{\rm gen}$ and that of effective coupling constants.
