New solutions with accelerated expansion in string theory
Abstract
We present concrete solutions with accelerated expansion in string theory, requiring a small, tractable list of stress energy sources. We explain how this construction (and others in progress) evades previous no go theorems for simple accelerating solutions. Our solutions respect an approximate scaling symmetry and realize discrete sequences of values for the equation of state, including one with an accumulation point at w = −1 and another accumulating near w = −1/3 from below. In another class of models, a density of defects generates scaling solutions with accelerated expansion. We briefly discuss potential applications to dark energy phenomenology, and to holography for cosmology.

In the citing paper
“One general result in compactifications with C ≥ 0 is that in a region where the Casimir contribution is negligible, the solution of the warp and conformal factor equations of motion implies a net negative value pointwise of the potential energy density appearing in the formula for V e f f [42], -R (7) -3 ∇u u 2 = 4ℓ 9 11 |ρ C | - C u - 5 2 F 2 7 .”

“In this region, positive curvature develops -as we saw above in (4.12), when Casimir energy is negligible the equations of motion imply -R (7) -3 ∇u u 2 < 0 pointwise [42].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
