abstract

Higher-derivative corrections to cosmological effective actions in string theory are largely constrained by T-duality, but have been computed hitherto only to the first few orders in the string scale $\alpha'$. The functional renormalization group, in conjunction with the strong constraints imposed by T-duality, allows to derive cosmological effective actions to all orders in $\alpha'$ while avoiding "truncations" of the theory space. We show that the resulting higher-derivative $\alpha'$-corrections forbid the existence of de Sitter vacua, at least in regimes where string-loop corrections can be neglected. Our findings thus support the implications of the no-de Sitter swampland conjecture in the presence of all-order effects in $\alpha'$.

  1. Non-supersymmetric strings on AdS$_3$: a world-sheet perspective

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    On AdS3×S3×S3×S1, a Wilson-line deformation of the Spin(16)×Spin(16)⋊Z2 heterotic string produces a level-matched tachyon, so the classical moduli space contains unstable regions.

  2. Impact of quantum gravity on the UV sensitivity of extremal black holes

    hep-th 2025-09 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    Asymptotically safe quantum gravity predicts a positive Goroff-Sagnotti Wilson coefficient at the Planck scale, which would keep extremal Kerr black hole tidal forces finite, but the paper's bound on the quantum gravi...

    gr-qc 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Within the Einstein-Weyl truncation, asymptotically safe gravity predicts a Weyl coefficient m_2 = 1.4 m_Pl, which constrains the phase diagram of compact objects: attractive naked singularities are disfavored while w...
