Cosmological Avatars of the Landscape II: CMB and LSS Signatures

R. Holman, Laura Mersini-Houghton, Tomo Takahashi

This is the second paper in the series that confronts predictions of a model of the landscape with cosmological observations. We show here how the modifications of the Friedmann eq…

Cosmological Avatars of the Landscape I: Bracketing the SUSY Breaking Scale

R. Holman, L. Mersini-Houghton, Tomo Takahashi

We investigate the effects of quantum entanglement between our horizon patch and others due to the tracing out of long wavelength modes in the wavefunction of the Universe as defin…

Quantum Deconstruction of 5D SQCD

Edoardo Di Napoli, Vadim S. Kaplunovsky

We deconstruct the fifth dimension of 5D SCQD with general numbers of colors and flavors and general 5D Chern-Simons level; the latter is adjusted by adding extra quarks to the 4D…

Turnaround in Cyclic Cosmology

Lauris Baum, Paul H. Frampton

It is speculated how dark energy in a brane world can help reconcile an infinitely cyclic cosmology with the second law of thermodynamics. A cyclic cosmology is described, in which…

Second Order Noncommutative Corrections to Gravity

Xavier Calmet, Archil Kobakhidze

In this work, we calculate the leading order corrections to general relativity formulated on a canonical noncommutative spacetime. These corrections appear in the second order of t…

Anomaly Cancellation and Conformality in Quiver Gauge Theories

Edoardo Di Napoli, Paul H. Frampton

Abelian quiver gauge theories provide nonsupersymmetric candidates for the conformality approach to physics beyond the standard model. Written as , gauge theor…

Theta-twisted Gravity

Archil Kobakhidze

We describe a theory of gravitation on canonical noncommutative spacetimes. The construction is based on theta-twisted General Coordinate Transformations and Local Lorentz Invarian…

Can Quantum de Sitter Space Have Finite Entropy?

Chethan Krishnan, Edoardo Di Napoli

If one tries to view de Sitter as a true (as opposed to a meta-stable) vacuum, there is a tension between the finiteness of its entropy and the infinite-dimensionality of its Hilbe…
