Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of High Energy Physics"
DOI: 10.1007/jhep01(2022)167
Abstract: We consider a nonlocal scalar field theory inspired by the tachyon action in open string field theory. The Lorentz-covariant action is characterized by a parameter ξ 2 that quantifies the amount of nonlocality. Restricting to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/jhep10(2020)108
Abstract: We study de Sitter configurations in ten-dimensional string models where supersymmetry is either absent or broken at the string scale. To this end, we derive expressions for the cosmological constant in general warped flux compactifications… read more here.
