Flux vacua of the mirror octic

Abstract

We determine all flux vacua with flux numbers Nflux ≤ 10 for a type IIB orientifold-compactification on the mirror-octic three-fold. To achieve this, we develop and apply techniques for performing a complete scan of flux vacua for the whole moduli space — we do not randomly sample fluxes nor do we consider only boundary regions of the moduli space. We compare our findings to results in the literature.
