Limits on the Statistical Description of Charged de Sitter Black Holes
Lars Aalsma, Puxin Lin, Jan Pieter van der Schaar +2
The thermodynamics of de Sitter black holes is complicated by the presence of two horizons and the absence of a globally defined timelike Killing vector. The standard choice of the…
Bounding axion dark energy
Gary Shiu, Flavio Tonioni, Hung V. Tran
We study cosmological solutions of (pseudo)scalar theories with periodic potentials, in the presence of arbitrary cosmological fluids -- including a cosmological constant of either…
Expanding the Weak Gravity Conjecture in AdS Space
Puxin Lin, Alessandro Mininno, Gary Shiu
In this work, we investigate the extension of our recent proposal for the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) in AdS space to more general effective field theories. We first extend the c…
Formulating the Weak Gravity Conjecture in AdS Space
Puxin Lin, Alessandro Mininno, Gary Shiu
We propose a version of the Weak Gravity Conjecture that applies to AdS spacetime. We find that the condition on the charge-to-mass ratio of a charged particle in AdS spacetime…
