Multi-axion theories solving the strong CP problem produce varied mass-coupling relations via a general sum rule that depends on the details of PQ symmetry breaking and anomaly alignments.
QCD axions constrain F-theory base threefolds to have rigid or flux-rigidified divisors, yielding typical axion masses around 10^{-9} eV and decay constants near 10^{15} GeV in allowed regions.
Updated model-independent BBN and CMB bounds on photophilic ALPs that incorporate rare decays to light hadrons, show extended constraints for multiple reheating temperatures, and flag parameter space that may alleviate tensions in N_eff and deuterium abundance.

Nucleosynthesis and CMB bounds on photophilic ALPs: a fresh look
