The string landscape: On formulas for counting vacua

We derive formulas for counting certain classes of vacua in the string/M theory landscape. We do so in the context of the moduli space of M-theory compactifications on singular manifolds with G2 holonomy. Particularly, we count the numbers of gauge theories with different gauge groups but equal numb...
