The holographic space-time model of inflation and its predictions for the CMB primordial spectra
Sidan A, Tom Banks
In 1998 Carlip and Solodukhin independently conjectured the equality between fluctuations in the modular Hamiltonian of black holes and its expectation value. Banks and Zurek's 202…
"Observables" in de Sitter Quantum Gravity: in Perturbation Theory and Beyond
Tom Banks
A review of some errors made by the author and others in their search for quantum models of gravity in cosmological space-times that asymptote to de Sitter (dS) space in the future…
Hilbert Bundles and Holographic Space-time Models
T. Banks
We reformulate Holographic Space-time (HST) Models as Hilbert bundles over the space of time-like geodesics on a background manifold. The background, following Jacobson, is viewed…
Global magniicence, or: 4G Networks
Nikita Nekrasov, Nicolo Piazzalunga
The global magnificent four theory is the homological version of a maximally supersymmetric -dimensional gauge theory on a Calabi-Yau fourfold fibered over a circle. In the…
Note on a Paper by Ooguri and Vafa
Tom Banks
In a recent paper, Ooguri and Vafa [arXiv:1610.04564] argued that a mild extension of the Weak Gravity conjecture\cite{weakgrav} led to the conclusion that the only models of quant…
Understanding the landscape
Michael R. Douglas
Based on comments made at the 23rd Solvay Conference, December 2005, Brussels.
Compactification of superstring theory
Michael R. Douglas
This article will appear in the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics (Elsevier, 2006) and follows its referencing guidelines.
Statistical analysis of the supersymmetry breaking scale
Michael R. Douglas
We discuss the question of what type and scale of supersymmetry breaking might be statistically favored among vacua of string/M theory, building on comments in Denef and Douglas, h…
D-Branes and N=1 Supersymmetry
Michael R. Douglas
We discuss the recent proposal that BPS D-branes in Calabi-Yau compactification of type II string theory are Pi-stable objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves.
