O(d,d)-invariant collapse/inflation from colliding superstring waves
Valerio Bozza, Gabriele Veneziano
Generalizing previous work, we study the collision of massless superstring plane waves in D space-time dimensions within an explicitly O(D-2,D-2)-invariant set of field equations.…

Pre-Big Bang Cosmology and Quantum Fluctuations
A. Ghosh, G. Pollifrone, G. Veneziano
The quantum fluctuations of a homogeneous, isotropic, open pre-big bang model are discussed. By solving exactly the equations for tensor and scalar perturbations we find that parti…
