Abstract

In a setup of type IIB superstring compactification on an orientifold of a T6/Z4{\mathbb T}^6/{\mathbb Z}_4 sixfold, the presence of geometric flux (ω\omega) and non-geometric fluxes (Q,RQ, R) is implemented along with the standard NS-NS and RR three-form fluxes (H,FH, F). After computing the F/D-term contributions to the N=1{\cal N}=1 four dimensional effective scalar potential, we rearrange the same into `suitable' pieces by using a set of new generalized flux orbits. Subsequently, we dimensionally oxidize the various pieces of the total four dimensional scalar potential to guess their ten-dimensional origin.
