Description

I will discuss several issues concerning the uplifting procedure of KKLT that have been discussed over the last year. Ranging from the stability with respect to brane-flux decay, to flattening effects when moduli stabilisation is included. I will try to convey the message that we are far from a proper understanding of whether dS uplifting can be achieved.
