The String Landscape and the Swampland
Recent developments in string theory suggest that string theory landscape of vacua is vast. It is natural to ask if this landscape is as vast as allowed by consistent-looking effective field theories. We use universality ideas from string theory to suggest that this is not the case, and that the landscape is surrounded by an even more vast swampland of consistent-looking semiclassical effective...
متن کاملNon-supersymmetric AdS and the Swampland
We propose to sharpen the weak gravity conjecture by the statement that, except for BPS states in a supersymmetric theory, the gravitational force is strictly weaker than any electric force and provide a number of evidences for this statement. Our conjecture implies that any non-supersymmetric anti-de Sitter vacuum supported by fluxes must be unstable, as is the case for all known attempts at s...
متن کاملTension testing in adherent cells
L ike soloing rock climbers, adherent cells need a good handhold to survive. Ma et al. now identify an adaptor protein that monitors the cell's grip and signals death if the grip fails. Death following detachment, known as anoikis, is a form of programmed cell death that ensures the disposal of displaced adherent cells. Lack of anoikis is thought to give cells metastatic potential. A number of ...
متن کاملOn the Geometry of the String Landscape and the Swampland
We make a number of conjectures about the geometry of continuous moduli parameterizing the string landscape. In particular we conjecture that such moduli are always given by expectation value of scalar fields and that moduli spaces with finite non-zero diameter belong to the swampland. We also conjecture that points at infinity in a moduli space correspond to points where an infinite tower of m...
متن کاملReiterated tension testing of silicone elastomer
A peristaltically actuated device, PADeMIS, composed of silicone rubber (SR) is under development for use in minimally invasive surgery. During locomotion, the device will be subject to a few thousand load changes involving varying, sometimes high, strains. The design is being optimised by finite element analysis, for which a constitutive law for the mechanical behaviour of silicone rubber is r...
