Linking Light Scalar Modes with A Small Positive Cosmological Constant in String Theory
S. -H. Henry Tye, Sam S. C. Wong
Based on the studies in Type IIB string theory phenomenology, we conjecture that a good fraction of the meta-stable de Sitter vacua in the cosmic stringy landscape tend to have a v…

Holographic non-Gaussianities in general single-field inflation
Hiroshi Isono, Toshifumi Noumi, Gary Shiu +2
We use holographic techniques to compute inflationary non-Gaussianities for general single-field inflation, including models with a non-trivial sound speed. In this holographic app…

The Chern-Simons Number as a Dynamical Variable
S. -H. Henry Tye, Sam S. C. Wong
In the standard electroweak theory that describes nature, the Chern-Simons number associated with the vacua as well as the unstable sphaleron solutions play a crucial role in the b…
