Towards Axion Monodromy Inflation with Warped KK-Modes
Arthur Hebecker, Jakob Moritz, Alexander Westphal +1
We present a particularly simple model of axion monodromy: Our axion is the lowest-lying KK-mode of the RR-2-form-potential in the standard Klebanov-Strassler throat. One can…
Axion Monodromy and the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Arthur Hebecker, Fabrizio Rompineve, Alexander Westphal
Axions with broken discrete shift symmetry (axion monodromy) have recently played a central role both in the discussion of inflation and the `relaxion' approach to the hierarchy pr…
Winding out of the Swamp: Evading the Weak Gravity Conjecture with F-term Winding Inflation?
Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Fabrizio Rompineve +1
We present a new model of large field inflation along a winding trajectory in the field space of two axionic fields, where the 'axions' originate from the complex structure moduli…
