  1. Collective excitations in quantum gravity condensates

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Collective excitations analogous to phonons are derived in quantum gravity condensates within a group field theory model, yielding leading beyond-mean-field corrections to emergent Friedmann dynamics.

  2. Curvature-Assisted Dynamical Compactification in a Pre-Inflationary Higher-Dimensional Universe

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Negative curvature sustains tracker-like radion evolution in a 5D open FRW universe, enabling trapping into a compactified vacuum via Casimir and Kaluza-Klein thermal effects before 4D inflation dilutes curvature remnants.

  3. Quantum-Deformed Phase-Space Geometry and Emergent Inflation in Effective Four-Dimensional Spacetime

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Quantum deformation of projective phase-space geometry induces a conformally deformed FLRW metric whose time-dependent corrections modify inflationary background equations, slow-roll parameters, and perturbations in a...

  4. LISA as a probe of pre-big-bang physics: a nested sampling analysis

    gr-qc 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Nested sampling analysis indicates LISA could constrain H1, m, sigma_i and beta in the pre-big-bang model to relative uncertainties of about 18 percent under favorable conditions when including foregrounds.

  5. Science Case for the Einstein Telescope

    astro-ph.CO 2019-12 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    The Einstein Telescope will enable gravitational-wave observations up to cosmological distances, opening avenues for discoveries in astrophysics, cosmology, and fundamental physics.
