The Swampland program aims to distinguish effective theories which can be completed into
quantum gravity in the ultraviolet from those which cannot. This article forms an introduction …

The traditional view from particle physics is that quantum-gravity effects should become
detectable only at extremely high energies and small length scales. Owing to the significant …

We consider single-field inflation in light of string-motivated'swampland'conjectures
suggesting that effective scalar field theories with a consistent UV completion must have …

Warm inflation seems to be the most befitting single-field slow-roll inflation scenario in the
context of the recently proposed swampland criteria. We investigate the constraints these …

In the simplest picture, the masses of string axions populating the axiverse depend on two
parameters: the supersymmetry-breaking scale M susy and the action S of the string …

We discuss how dissipative effects and the presence of a thermal radiation bath, which are
inherent characteristics of the warm inflation dynamics, can evade the recently proposed …

Recently, arguments for a refined de Sitter conjecture were put forward in [1]. Using the large
distance conjecture of [2], the authors provide evidence for this dS conjecture in asymptotic …

The recently proposed swampland criteria aim to evade any (meta-) stable de Sitter
constructions within string landscapes, making it difficult to accommodate accelerating …

A bstract The Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) demands the existence of superextremal
particles in any consistent quantum theory of gravity. The standard lore is that these particles …

Motivated by its potential use as a starting point for solving various cosmological constant
problems, we study F‐theory compactified on the warped product where Y8 is a manifold …
