Vacua with Small Flux Superpotential
Abstract: We describe a method for finding flux vacua of type IIB string theory in which the Gukov-Vafa-Witten superpotential is exponentially small. We present an example with $W_0 \approx 2 \times 10{-8}$ on an orientifold of a Calabi-Yau hypersurface with $(h{1,1},h{2,1})=(2,272)$, at large complex structure and weak string coupling.
