Fields Institute, Room 230
Abstract:
A detailed arguments will be given why stabilization of certain moduli is a prerequisite for string cosmology. We proceed with recently established class of string theory vacua forming a large landscape of string theory. New ideas about stabilization of moduli via instanton corrections to the superpotential will be presented based on counting of the zero modes of Dirac operator on M5 brane with background fluxes.
