Cosmological tensions in Proca-Nuevo theory

Hsu-Wen Chiang, Claudia de Rham, Sebastian Garcia-Saenz +1

We study the cosmological predictions of (extended) Proca-Nuevo theory. This vector-tensor theory enjoys stable homogeneous and isotropic solutions characterized by an effective da…

Bispectrum Islands

Claudia de Rham, Sadra Jazayeri, Andrew J. Tolley

Inspired by the amplitude bootstrap program, the spirit of this work is to constrain the space of consistent inflationary correlation functions - specifically, the bispectrum of cu…

Hidden Conformal Symmetry of the Discrete Series Scalars in dS

Kara Farnsworth, Kurt Hinterbichler, Samanta Saha

In dimensional de Sitter space, a scalar field has an infinite tower of special tachyonic mass values at which enhanced shift symmetries appear. After modding out by these shif…

To curve, or not to curve: Is curvature-assisted quintessence observationally viable?

George Alestas, Matilda Delgado, Ignacio Ruiz +3

Single-field models of accelerated expansion with nearly flat potentials, despite being able to provide observationally viable explanations for the early-time cosmic inflation and…

Impossible Symmetries and Conformal Gravity

Kurt Hinterbichler, Austin Joyce, Grégoire Mathys

We explore the physics of relativistic gapless phases defined by a mixed anomaly between two generalized conserved currents. The gapless modes can be understood as Goldstone modes…

Dualities Among Massive, Partially Massless and Shift Symmetric Fields on (A)dS

Kurt Hinterbichler

We catalog all the electromagnetic-like dualities that exist between free dynamical bosonic fields of arbitrary symmetry type and mass on (anti-) de Sitter space in all dimensions,…
