We perform a thorough analysis of de Sitter vacua in O(d,d) invariant cosmologies. Starting with a homogeneous and isotropic framework we examine conditions for the existence of such vacua, non-perturbative in \alpha' in both the string frame and the Einstein frame. We elucidate the nature of the instability in the string frame vacuum. For the Einstein frame, we demonstrate that the de Sitter vacuum cannot be eternal. We then extend our analysis to include Bianchi I universes where the O(d,d) symmetry includes scale factor exchange as well as scale factor duality. We show how the theory can be extended to the anisotropic case so that it admits de Sitter vacua, noting the crucial role played by the O(d,d) symmetry in satisfying any additional constraints.

Higher co-dimension de Sitter branes
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.
