We argue that in the simplest version of the KKLT model, the maximal value of the Hubble constant during inflation cannot exceed the present value of the gravitino mass, H< m_{3/2}. This may have important implications for string cosmology and for the scale of the SUSY breaking in this model. If one wants to have inflation on high energy scale, one must develop phenomenological models with an extremely large gravitino mass. On the other hand, if one insists that the gravitino mass should be O(1 TeV), one will need to develop models with a very low scale of inflation. We show, however, that one can avoid these restrictions in a more general class of KKLT models based on the racetrack superpotential with more than one exponent. In this case one can combine a small gravitino mass and low scale of SUSY breaking with the high energy scale of inflation.

  1. Why 4D? Spontaneous Dimensional Selection from Gauge Criticality

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    Gauge criticality of Yang–Mills, via racetrack confinement and 3D dynamical SUSY breaking, can stabilize radii so that a macroscopic 4D spacetime emerges without being put in by hand.

  2. Phenomenology of Inflaton-Driven Early QCD Confinement and Solution to Axion Isocurvature Problem

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Inflaton-gluon coupling induces early QCD confinement to suppress axion isocurvature perturbations and enable axion dark matter production in alpha-attractor inflation models.

  3. 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.

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    In a 5D open FRW model, negative curvature sustains tracker-like radion evolution that enables dynamical compactification via Casimir stabilization before 4D inflation dilutes curvature remnants.
