Thermal Festina Lente
Fayez Abu-Ajamieh, Nobuchika Okada, Roman Pasechnik +2
According to the Festina Lente bound, particles charged under a gauge field cannot be too light. Otherwise, the largest charged black holes of de Sitter space would discharg…
Holographic (Eternal) Inflation
Thomas Hertog, Jef Pauwels, Victoria Venken
We identify a minisuperspace of complex deformations of ABJM theory for which the partition function specifies the amplitude of an eternally inflating universe. The boundary theory…
Cosmological Phase Transitions and the Swampland
Victoria Venken
I consider the Festina Lente Swampland bound and argue taking thermal effects, as for instance occur during reheating, into account significantly strengthens the implications of th…
Curvature corrections to KPV: Do we need deep throats?
Arthur Hebecker, Simon Schreyer, Victoria Venken
We consider curvature corrections to the action of an NS5-brane which plays the key role in the metastability analysis of warped anti-D3-brane uplifts by Kachru, Pearson and…
