Aspects of brane-antibrane inflation
James M. Cline
I describe a dynamical mechanism for solving the fine-tuning problem of brane-antibrane inflation. By inflating with stacks of branes and antibranes, the branes can naturally be tr…
Multibrane Inflation and Dynamical Flattening of the Inflaton Potential
James M. Cline, Horace Stoica
We investigate the problem of fine tuning of the potential in the KKLMMT warped flux compactification scenario for brane-antibrane inflation in Type IIB string theory. We argue for…
Inflation from String Theory
James M. Cline
I review some aspects of obtaining inflation from string theory, in particular brane-antibrane inflation within the framework of KKLMMT, and racetrack inflation. Further, I discuss…
Codimension-two branes in six-dimensional supergravity and the cosmological constant problem
Jérémie Vinet, James M. Cline
We investigate in detail recent suggestions that codimension-two braneworlds in six dimensional supergravity might circumvent Weinberg's no-go theorem for self-tuning of the cosmol…
