We apply the techniques of special Kaehler geometry to investigate AdS_4 vacua of general N=2 gauged supergravities underlying flux compactifications of type II theories. We formulate the scalar potential and its extremization conditions in terms of a triplet of prepotentials P_x and their special Kaehler covariant derivatives only, in a form that recalls the potential and the attractor equations of N=2 black holes. We propose a system of first order equations for the P_x which generalize the supersymmetry conditions and yield non-supersymmetric vacua. Special geometry allows us to recast these equations in algebraic form, and we find an infinite class of new N=0 and N=1 AdS_4 solutions, displaying a rich pattern of non-trivial charges associated with NSNS and RR fluxes. Finally, by explicit evaluation of the entropy function on the solutions, we derive a U-duality invariant expression for the cosmological constant and the central charges of the dual CFTs.

The Schwarzschild, Schwarzschild-AdS, and Schwarzschild-de Sitter solutions all admit freely acting discrete involutions which commute with the continuous symmetries of the spacetimes. Intuitively, these involutions correspond to the antipodal map of
the corresponding spacetimes. In analogy with the ordinary de Sitter example, this allows us to construct new vacua by performing a Mottola-Allen transform on the modes associated with the Hartle-Hawking, or Euclidean, vacuum. These vacua are the `alpha-vacua for these black holes. The causal structure of a typical black hole may ameliorate certain difficulties which are encountered in the case of de Sitter alpha-vacua. For Schwarzschild-AdS black holes, a Bogoliubov transformation which mixes operators of the two boundary CFTs provides a construction of the dual CFT alpha-states. Finally, we analyze the thermal properties of these vacua.
We describe how unbounded three--form fluxes can lead to families of $AdS_3 times S_7$ vacua, with constant dilaton profiles, in the $USp(32)$ model with brane supersymmetry breaking and in the $U(32)$ 0B model, if their (projective--)disk dilaton ta
dpoles are taken into account. We also describe how, in the $SO(16) times SO(16)$ heterotic model, if the torus vacuum energy $Lambda$ is taken into account, unbounded seven--form fluxes can support similar $AdS_7 times S_3$ vacua, while unbounded three--form fluxes, when combined with internal gauge fields, can support $AdS_3 times S_7$ vacua, which continue to be available even if $Lambda$ is neglected. In addition, special gauge field fluxes can support, in the $SO(16) times SO(16)$ heterotic model, a set of $AdS_{n}times S_{10-n}$ vacua, for all $n=2,..,8$. String loop and $alpha$ corrections appear under control when large form fluxes are allowed.
In recent times, a considerable effort has been dedicated to identify certain conditions -- the so-called swampland conjectures -- with an eye on identifying effective theories which have no consistent UV-completions in string theory. In this paper,
we examine the anti-de Sitter vacua corresponding to solutions which arise from purely non-perturbative contributions to the superpotential and show that these solutions satisfy the (axionic) weak gravity conjecture and the AdS-moduli scale separation conjecture. We also sketch out their advantages over other constructions.
We give a classification of fully supersymmetric chiral ${cal N}=(8,0)$ AdS$_3$ vacua in general three-dimensional half-maximal gauged supergravities coupled to matter. These theories exhibit a wealth of supersymmetric vacua with background isometrie
s given by the supergroups OSp$(8|2,mathbb{R})$, F(4), SU$(4|1,1)$, and OSp$(4^*|4)$, respectively. We identify the associated embedding tensors and the structure of the associated gauge groups. We furthermore compute the mass spectra around these vacua. As an off-spin we include results for a number of ${cal N}=(7,0)$ vacua with supergroups OSp$(7|2,mathbb{R})$ and G$(3)$, respectively. We also comment on their possible higher-dimensional uplifts.
We construct a generalization of Wittens Kaluza-Klein instanton, where a higher-dimensional sphere (rather than a circle as in Wittens instanton) collapses to zero size and the geometry terminates at a bubble of nothing, in a low energy effective the
ory of M theory. We use the solution to exhibit instability of non-supersymmetric AdS_5 vacua in M Theory compactified on positive Kaehler-Einstein spaces, providing a further evidence for the recent conjecture that any non-supersymmetric anti-de Sitter vacuum supported by fluxes must be unstable.
