de Sitter swampland conjecture and the Higgs potential

Journal Article Denef, Frederik ; Hebecker, Arthur ; Wrase, Timm - Physical Review D

According to a conjecture recently put forward in [1], the scalar potential V of any consistent theory of quantum gravity satisfies a bound j∇Vj=V ≥ Oð1Þ. This forbids de Sitter solutions and supports quintessence models of cosmic acceleration. Here, we point out that in the simplest models incorporating the standard model in addition to quintessence, with the two sectors decoupled as suggested by observations, the proposed bound is violated by 50 orders of magnitude. However, a very specific coupling between quintessence and just the Higgs sector may still be allowed and consistent with the conjecture.

On the cosmological implications of the string Swampland

Journal Article Agrawal, Prateek ; Obied, Georges ; Steinhardt, Paul J. ; ... - Physics Letters. Section B

We study constraints imposed by two proposed string Swampland criteria on cosmology. These criteria involve an upper bound on the range traversed by scalar fields as well as a lower bound on |∇ _ΦV|/V when V > 0. We find that inflationary models are generically in tension with these two criteria. Applying these same criteria to dark energy in the present epoch, we find that specific quintessence models can satisfy these bounds and, at the same time, satisfy current observational constraints. Assuming the two Swampland criteria are valid, we argue that the universe will undergo a phase transition within amore »« less
