Quantum Corrections and the de Sitter Swampland Conjecture
Keshav Dasgupta, Maxim Emelin, Evan McDonough +1
Recently a swampland criterion has been proposed that rules out de Sitter vacua in string theory. Such a criterion should hold at all points in the field space and especially at po…
On Bulk Viscosity at Weak and Strong 't Hooft Couplings
Alina Czajka, Keshav Dasgupta, Charles Gale +4
Bulk viscosity is an important transport coefficient that exists in the hydrodynamical limit only when the underlying theory is non-conformal. One example being thermal QCD with la…
Bulk Viscosity at Extreme Limits: From Kinetic Theory to Strings
Alina Czajka, Keshav Dasgupta, Charles Gale +4
In this paper we study bulk viscosity in a thermal QCD model with large number of colors at two extreme limits: the very weak and the very strong 't Hooft couplings. The weak coupl…
Non-Kahler Deformed Conifold, Ultra-Violet Completion and Supersymmetric Constraints in the Baryonic Branch
Keshav Dasgupta, Jake Elituv, Maxim Emelin +1
Gravity duals for a class of UV complete minimally supersymmetric non-conformal gauge theories require deformed conifolds with fluxes. However these manifolds do not allow for the…
