Inflation and the cosmological constant

open access: yes上海师范大学学报. 自然科学版, 2014
By assuming the cosmological “constant” is no longer a constant during the inflation epoch,it is found that the cosmological constant fine-tuning problem is solved.In the meanwhile,inflation models could predict a large tensor-to-scalar ratio,correct ...

Mirror QCD and Cosmological Constant

open access: yesUniverse, 2017
An analog of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) sector known as mirror QCD (mQCD) can affect the cosmological evolution due to a non-trivial contribution to the Cosmological Constant analogous to that induced by the ground state in non-perturbative QCD.

The cosmological constant is probably still zero [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We consider a wide class of four-dimensional effective field theories in which gravity is coupled to multiple four-forms and their dual scalar fields, with membrane sources charged under the corresponding three-form potentials.

Wormholes and the cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 1989
We review Coleman's wormhole mechanism for the vanishing of the cosmological constant. We show that in a minisuperspace model wormhole-connected universes dominate the path integral. We also provide evidence that the euclidean path integral over geometries with spherical topology is unstable with respect to formation of infinitely many wormhole ...

A symmetry for the cosmological constant [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2006
We study a symmetry, schematically Energy -> - Energy, which suppresses matter contributions to the cosmological constant. The requisite negative energy fluctuations are identified with a "ghost" copy of the Standard Model. Gravity explicitly, but weakly, violates the symmetry, and naturalness requires General Relativity to break down at short ...

Lemaître Class Dark Energy Model for Relaxing Cosmological Constant

open access: yesUniverse, 2017
Cosmological constant corresponds to the maximally symmetric cosmological term with the equation of state p = − ρ . Introducing a cosmological term with the reduced symmetry, p r = − ρ in the spherically symmetric case, makes ...

Modified gravity with disappearing cosmological constant

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
New corrections to General Relativity are considered in the context of modified f(R) gravity, that satisfy cosmological and local gravity constraints. The proposed models behave asymptotically as R − 2Λ at large curvature and show the vanishing of the ...
