W=0 Complex Structure Moduli Stabilization on CM-type K3 x K3 Orbifolds:—Arithmetic, Geometry and Particle Physics—

Kavli Affiliate: Taizan Watari | First 5 Authors: Keita Kanno, Taizan Watari, , , | Summary: It is an important question in string compactification whether complex structure moduli stabilization inevitably ends up with a vacuum expectation value of the superpotential < W > of the order of the Planck scale cubed. Any thoughts on volume […]

Minkowski functionals and the nonlinear perturbation theory in the large-scale structure: second-order effects

Kavli Affiliate: Chiaki Hikage | First 5 Authors: Takahiko Matsubara, Chiaki Hikage, Satoshi Kuriki, , | Summary: The second-order formula of Minkowski functionals in weakly non-Gaussian fields is compared with the numerical $N$-body simulations. Recently, weakly non-Gaussian formula of Minkowski functionals is extended to include the second-order effects of non-Gaussianity in general dimensions. We apply […]
