The Role of Microstate Degeneracy in Phase Transitions: Gravitational Waves from Bubble Entanglement
Gia Dvali, Lucy Komisel
Vacuum bubbles, formed in first order phase transitions, have important implications for cosmology. In particular, they source gravitational waves. Usually, it is assumed that, onc…

The Strong- Problem and its Gauge Axion solution as Evidence for Fundamental Strings
Gia Dvali, Lucy Komisel, Otari Sakhelashvili +1
The topological susceptibility of the QCD vacuum provides an understanding of -vacua as vacua of a Chern-Simons gauge theory. In this way, it gives an immediate proof of the ph…
