De Sitter Quantum Breaking, Swampland Conjectures and Thermal Strings
Ralph Blumenhagen, Christian Kneissl, Andriana Makridou
We argue that under certain assumptions the quantum break time approach and the trans-Planckian censorship conjecture both lead to de Sitter swampland constraints of the same funct…
KKLT and the Swampland Conjectures
Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann, Daniel Klaewer +2
Recently, various swampland conjectures have been proposed that every UV complete effective field theory should satisfy. In particular, these deal with the properties of AdS and dS…
dS Spaces and Brane Worlds in Exotic String Theories
Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann, Andriana Makridou +2
We investigate string-phenomenological questions of Hull's exotic superstring theories with Euclidean strings/branes and multiple times. These are known to be plagued by pathologie…
