Quantitative Analysis of the Stochastic Approach to Quantum Tunneling
Mark P. Hertzberg, Fabrizio Rompineve, Neil Shah
Recently there has been increasing interest in alternate methods to compute quantum tunneling in field theory. Of particular interest is a stochastic approach which involves (i) sa…
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…
Tuning and Backreaction in F-term Axion Monodromy Inflation
Arthur Hebecker, Patrick Mangat, Fabrizio Rompineve +1
We continue the development of axion monodromy inflation, focussing in particular on the backreaction of complex structure moduli. In our setting, the shift symmetry comes from a p…
