Flux compactifications in Einstein-Born-Infeld theories

Abstract: We investigate the flux compactification mechanism in simple toy models of Einstein-Born-Infeld theories. These are the direct generalizations of the Einstein-Maxwell flux compactifications that recently gained fame as a toy model for tunneling in the landscape. Our investigation reveals that the Born-Infeld form does not significantly modify the qualitative result of the Einstein-Maxwell theory. For the case of Einstein-Higgs theory, however, we found that the effect of Born-Infeld nonlinearity is to render a… Show more

“…One year later, this nonlinear theory was first employed by Hoffmann in context of Einstein gravity [73]. Although BI theory has long been discarded due to its complexity, in recent two decades, different types of black holes in the presence of BI electrodynamics have been investigated [74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85].…”

“…To remove this singularity associated with the charged point-like particle, a nonlinear electromagnetic field was introduced by Born and Infeld [1,2]. Einstein-Hilbert gravity in the presence of Born-Infeld (BI) electrodynamics was found by Hoffmann [3] and the exact solutions of this model have been investigated in [4,5,6]. Perturbation theory is an efficient method for weakly coupled theory but it is not suitable for strongly coupled theories.…”
