The Shape of Gravity in a Warped Deformed Conifold

Hassan Firouzjahi, S. -H. Henry Tye

We study the spectrum of the gravitational modes in Minkowski spacetime due to a 6-dimensional warped deformed conifold, i.e., a warped throat, in superstring theory. After identif…

The Tension Spectrum of Cosmic Superstrings in a Warped Deformed Conifold

Hassan Firouzjahi, S. -H. Henry Tye

This paper has been withdrawn. The interpretation of tension spectrum of cosmic superstrings in terms of KK momentum is invalid as presented in section 2. A new paper based on calc…

The Boundedness of Euclidean Gravity and the Wavefunction of the Universe

Saswat Sarangi, S. -H. Henry Tye

When the semi-positive cosmological constant is dynamical, the naive Euclidean Einstein action is unbounded from below and the Hartle-Hawking wavefunction of the universe is not no…

Scaling of Multi-Tension Cosmic Superstring Networks

S. -H. Henry Tye, Ira Wasserman, Mark Wyman

Brane inflation in superstring theory ends when branes collide, initiating the hot big bang. Cosmic superstrings are produced during the brane collision. The cosmic superstrings pr…

Cosmic String Lensing and Closed Time-like Curves

Benjamin Shlaer, S. -H. Henry Tye

In an analysis of the gravitational lensing by two relativistic cosmic strings, we argue that the formation of closed time-like curves proposed by Gott is unstable in the presence…
