Scalar field stochastic dynamics in de Sitter spacetime from exact solutions of quantum deficient oscillators

Yuta Nasuda, Koki Tokeshi, Yuki Watanabe

The stochastic dynamics of a scalar field in de Sitter spacetime can be regarded as a non-perturbative diffusion process, to which exact distribution and correlation functions are…

Angles in Fuzzy Disc and Angular Noncommutative Solitons

Shinpei Kobayashi, Tsuguhiko Asakawa

The fuzzy disc, introduced by the authors of Ref.[1], is a disc-shaped region in a noncommutative plane, and is a fuzzy approximation of a commutative disc. In this paper we show t…

Noncommutative Solitons of Gravity

Tsuguhiko Asakawa, Shinpei Kobayashi

We investigate a three-dimensional gravitational theory on a noncommutative space which has a cosmological constant term only. We found various kinds of nontrivial solutions, by ap…

Prospects of inflation in delicate D-brane cosmology

Sudhakar Panda, M. Sami, Shinji Tsujikawa

We study D-brane inflation in a warped conifold background that includes brane-position dependent corrections for the nonperturbative superpotential. Instead of stabilizing the vol…

UV stable, Lorentz-violating dark energy with transient phantom era

Maxim Libanov, Eleftherios Papantonopoulos, Valery Rubakov +2

Phantom fields with negative kinetic energy are often plagued by the vacuum quantum instability in the ultraviolet region. We present a Lorentz-violating dark energy model free fro…

String-inspired cosmology: Late time transition from scaling matter era to dark energy universe caused by a Gauss-Bonnet coupling

Shinji Tsujikawa, M. Sami

The Gauss-Bonnet (GB) curvature invariant coupled to a scalar field can lead to an exit from a scaling matter-dominated epoch to a late-time accelerated expansion, which is att…

Inflation from D3-brane motion in the background of D5-branes

Sudhakar Panda, M. Sami, Shinji Tsujikawa +1

We study inflation arising from the motion of a BPS D3-brane in the background of a stack of k parallel D5-branes. There are two scalar fields in this set up-- (i) the radion field…

Coupled dark energy: Towards a general description of the dynamics

Burin Gumjudpai, Tapan Naskar, M. Sami +1

In dark energy models of scalar-field coupled to a barotropic perfect fluid, the existence of cosmological scaling solutions restricts the Lagrangian of the field $\vp$ to $p=X g(X…
