Warped Compactifications in Particle Physics, Cosmology and Quantum Gravity
Prateek Agrawal, Cari Cesarotti, Andreas Karch +3
Particle physics has evolved in the past decade through evaluating the consequences of experimental measurements as well as exploiting theoretical tools that permit exploration of…
Topological Gravity as the Early Phase of Our Universe
Prateek Agrawal, Sergei Gukov, Georges Obied +1
Motivated by string dualities we propose topological gravity as the early phase of our universe. The topological nature of this phase naturally leads to the explanation of many of…
On the Cosmological Implications of the String Swampland
Prateek Agrawal, Georges Obied, Paul J. Steinhardt +1
We study constraints imposed by two proposed string Swampland criteria on cosmology. These criteria involve an upper bound on the range traversed by scalar fields as well as a lowe…
Small Vacuum Energy from Small Equivalence Violation in Scalar Gravity
Prateek Agrawal, Raman Sundrum
The theory of scalar gravity proposed by Nordström, and refined by Einstein and Fokker, provides a striking analogy to general relativity. In its modern form, scalar gravity appear…
