We provide evidence that slow roll is not possible in any parametrically controlled regime of the moduli space of string theory. This is proven in full generality in the asymptotic limit of the moduli space of type II and heterotic Calabi-Yau compactifications for the dilaton and any number of K\"ahler moduli. Our results suggest that in order to build quintessence into string theory one must work in the interior of moduli space where numerical, even if not parametric, control could still be achieved.

  1. Background instability of quintessence model in light of entropy and distance conjecture

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An entropy comparison shows quintessence backgrounds with a finite event horizon are unstable, equating the trans-Planckian censorship bound with a species-entropy growth condition.

  2. Higher co-dimension de Sitter branes

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A no-go theorem shows that thin co-dimension-two branes cannot support de Sitter vacua in compactified supergravity, and higher co-dimensions need negative tension.

  3. Fibre Inflation Meets Quintessence: Implications of Perturbative Stabilisation

    hep-th 2025-11 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    Adding a base-modulus redefinition to fibre inflation in perturbative LVS shifts (ns, r) into ACT-allowed territory and yields an axion quintessence companion.

  4. Universal Cosmologies

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For open FLRW universes in two-scalar exponential-potential models from 10d IIA supergravity, the late-time attractor sets the effective exponent to the shortest vector to the convex hull of potential exponents, givin...
