Cosmology from Moduli Dynamics
Tirthabir Biswas, Prashanth Jaikumar
We investigate moduli field dynamics in supergravity/M-theory like set ups where we turn on fluxes along some or all of the extra dimensions. As has been argued in the context of s…

Quintessence and Inflation from Symmetry Breaking Transition of the Internal Manifold
Tirthabir Biswas, Prashanth Jaikumar
We show that even in the simple framework of pure Kaluza-Klein gravity the shape moduli can generate potentials supporting inflation and/or quintessence. Using the shape moduli as…
