Statement of Interest:


  My research focuses on matter couplings to N=2 supergravity. I am
concentrating on instanton corrections to hypermultiplet moduli spaces
in CY compactifications of Type IIA strings, motivated among others by
the fact that in combination with fluxes such quantum effects can fix
the moduli in meta-stable de Sitter vacua.
