Quantum-Ordering Ambiguities in Weak Chern-Simons 4D Gravity and Metastability of the Condensate-Induced Inflation
Panagiotis Dorlis, Nick E. Mavromatos, Sotirios-Neilos Vlachos
In this work, we elaborate further on a 4D cosmological Running-Vacuum-type Model (RVM) of inflation that characterises string-inspired Chern-Simons (CS) gravity. It has been shown…
Torsion-induced axions in string theory, quantum gravity and the cosmological tensions
Nick E. Mavromatos, Panagiotis Dorlis, Sotirios-Neilos Vlachos
We discuss the role of torsion in string theory on inducing pseudoscalar degrees of freedom (axions), which in turn couple to (gravitational) Chern-Simons (CS) anomalous terms. Suc…
Condensate-Induced Inflation from Primordial Gravitational Waves in String-Inspired Chern-Simons Gravity
Panagiotis Dorlis, Nick E. Mavromatos, Sotirios-Neilos Vlachos
In this work, we elaborate further on a cosmological model of inflation that characterises Chern-Simons (CS) gravity models inspired from string theory. Such models are known to be…
