Abstract

In this talk we discuss various aspects of the string landscape: D‐brane model building and their statistics, the generation of non‐perturbative superpotentials from D‐brane instantons, moduli stabilization by fluxes and non‐perturbative effects, the relation between flux vacua and BPS black holes, the construction of AdS~4~ vacua and related domain wall solutions, transitions between flux vacua and also some constraints on the string landscape from black hole considerations.
