Monodromy charge in D7-brane inflation

Abstract In axion monodromy inflation, traversing N axion periods corresponds to discharging N units of a quantized charge. In certain models with moving D7-branes, such as Higgs-otic inflation, this monodromy charge is D3-brane charge induced on the D7-branes. The stress-energy of the induced charg...
