This model is engineered with fractional D3-branes at a C3/(Z2 × Z2) singularity and its non-perturbative sectors are described by introducing fractional D-instantons. We find a rich variety of instanton-generated interactions, ranging from superpotentials and Beasley-Witten like multi-fermion terms to non-perturbative flux-induced instanton interactions.

Abstract
Motivated by possible implications on the problem of moduli stabilization and other phenomenological aspects, we study D-brane instanton effects in flux compactifications. We focus on a local model and compute non-perturbative interactions generated by gauge and stringy instantons in a Script N = 1 quiver theory with gauge group U(N0) × U(N1) and matter in the bifundamentals. This model is engineered with fractional D3-branes at a C3/(Z2 × Z2) singularity and its non-perturbative sectors are described by introducing fractional D-instantons. We find a rich variety of instanton-generated interactions, ranging from superpotentials and Beasley-Witten like multi-fermion terms to non-perturbative flux-induced instanton interactions.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
