Quintessence models in supergravity [PDF]
Scalar field models of quintessence typically require that the expectation value of the field today is of order the Planck mass, if we want them to explain the observed acceleration of the Universe.

Fine-tuning constraints on supergravity models [PDF]
We discuss fine-tuning constraints on supergravity models. The tightest constraints come from the experimental mass limits on two key particles: the lightest CP even Higgs boson and the gluino. We also include the lightest chargino which is relevant when

On the topology of the inflaton field in minimal supergravity models [PDF]
A bstractWe consider global issues in minimal supergravity models where a single field inflaton potential emerges. In a particular case we reproduce the Starobinsky model and its description dual to a certain formulation of R + R2 supergravity.

Multi-Field versus Single-Field in the Supergravity Models of Inflation and Primordial Black Holes
We review the models unifying inflation and Primordial Black Hole (PBH) formation, which are based on the modified (Starobinsky-type) supergravity. We begin with the basic (Starobinsky) inflationary model of modified gravity and its alpha-attractor-type ...

Enriques and octonionic magic supergravity models [PDF]
We reconsider the Enriques Calabi Yau (FHSV) model and its string derivation and argue that the Octonionic magic supergravity theory admits a string interpretation closely related to the Enriques model.

Minimal Supergravity Models of Inflation [PDF]
We present a superconformal master action for a class of supergravity models with one arbitrary function defining the Jordan frame. It leads to a gauge-invariant action for a real vector multiplet, which upon gauge fixing describes a massive vector ...

Glueball mass spectra and other issues for supergravity duals of QCD models [PDF]
We derive WKB expressions for glueball masses of various finite temperature supergravity models. The results are very close to recent numerical computations.

On sgoldstino-less supergravity models of inflation [PDF]
A bstractWe go a step further in the search for a consistent and realistic supergravity model of large-field inflation by building a class of models with the following features: during slow-roll, all the scalar fields other than the inflaton are frozen ...

Supergravity solution-generating techniques and canonical transformations of σ-models from O(D, D) [PDF]
Within the framework of the flux formulation of Double Field Theory (DFT) we employ a generalised Scherk-Schwarz ansatz and discuss the classification of the twists that in the presence of the strong constraint give rise to constant generalised fluxes ...
