We present a new mechanism for creating the observed cosmic matter-antimatter asymmetry which satisfies all three Sakharov conditions from one common thread, gravitational waves. We generate lepton number through the gravitational anomaly in the lepton number current. The source term comes from elliptically polarizated gravity waves that are produced during inflation if the inflaton field contains a CP-odd component. In simple inflationary scenarios, the generated matter asymmetry is very small. We describe some special conditions in which our mechanism can give a matter asymmetry of realistic size.

    hep-ph 2024-12 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    Proposes topological leptogenesis where a new gapped topological order sector cancels the SM B-L anomaly and BSM dark matter consists of decaying line/surface defects with anyon charges.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In Fibre Inflation, spectator axions with f≲0.1 M_Pl leave the PBH power spectrum unchanged, while for f≳0.1 M_Pl and exponentially small non-perturbative prefactors they can raise P_R from 1.9e-4 to 3.5e-3 and enable...

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Exact Schwarzschild and Kerr geometries in a disformally related frame yield secondary disformal scalar hair on black holes in a projectively invariant scalar-torsion theory.

  4. Baryogenesis via Asymmetric Evaporation of Primordial Black Holes

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Evaporating primordial black holes, biased by a new gravitational interaction, can reproduce the observed baryon asymmetry once entropy dilution and chemical-potential-dependent emission are included.

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Scalaron-induced gravitational waves in Chern-Simons running-vacuum cosmology have a universal f^6 high-frequency scaling, distinguishable from the f^7 scaling of general relativity, and may be detectable by future ob...

  6. Birefringence in fermion-attenuated gravitational wave power spectrum

    gr-qc 2025-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Combining free-streaming fermion damping with Chern-Simons gravity yields a chiral asymmetry and oscillatory peaks and dips in the stochastic gravitational wave power spectrum.

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a Chern-Simons gravity model, quantum-ordering-dependent imaginary parts of the gravitational anomaly condensate give inflation a finite lifetime and imply the string scale is about one tenth of the Planck mass.

  8. Gravitational Wave Birefringence from Fuzzy Dark Matter

    gr-qc 2024-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Fuzzy dark matter induces frequency-dependent amplitude birefringence in gravitational waves with periodic time modulation set by the scalar mass, but no velocity birefringence.

  9. Flavoured leptogenesis and ${\rm CP}^{\mu\tau}$ symmetry

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In CPmu-tau symmetric seesaw models, flavoured leptogenesis works with M2/M1 as low as 4.7, lowering the old lower bound on M1 to about 7.5e9 GeV and allowing N2-dominated scenarios in roughly a quarter of the paramet...

    gr-qc 2019-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    In Chern-Simons axion Einstein gravity, right- and left-handed gravitational wave polarizations obey different dispersion relations, and high-frequency damping is four times stronger than in general relativity.

    gr-qc 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Unitarity and torsion requirements in (3+1)-dimensional string effective actions introduce only a subleading four-derivative term that leaves the StRVM inflationary dynamics unchanged, confirming the model's phenomeno...

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    A review of the stringy RVM inflation model, where gravitational Chern-Simons condensates from chiral gravitational waves drive inflation and a tuned instanton action reproduces the observed spectral index.
