N-vaton
Qing-Guo Huang
In general there are a large number of light scalar fields in the theories going beyond standard model, such as string theory, and some of them can be taken as the candidates of cu…
Spectral Index in Curvaton Scenario
Qing-Guo Huang
A red tilted primordial power spectrum is preferred by WMAP five-year data and a large positive local-type non-Gaussianity might be observed as well. In this short note we…
Large Non-Gaussianity Implication for Curvaton Scenario
Qing-Guo Huang
We argue that the typical energy density of a light scalar field should not be less than in the inflationary Universe. This requirement implies that the non-Gaussianity param…
Weak Gravity Conjecture for the Effective Field Theories with N Species
Qing-Guo Huang
We conjecture an intrinsic UV cutoff for the validity of the effective field theory with a large number of species coupled to gravity. In four dimensions such a UV cutoff takes the…
Eternal Chaotic Inflation is Prohibited by Weak Gravity Conjecture
Qing-Guo Huang, Miao Li, Yi Wang
We investigate whether the eternal chaotic inflation can be achieved when the weak gravity conjecture is taken into account. We show that even the assisted chaotic inflation with p…
Constraints on the spectral index for the inflation models in string landscape
Qing-Guo Huang
We conjecture that the inflation models with trans-Planckian excursions in the field space should be in the swampland. We check this conjecture in a few examples and investigate th…
