The duality-type symmetries of string cosmology naturally lead to a pre-big-bang phase of accelerated evolution as dual counterpart of the decelerated expansion of standard cosmology. We discuss several properties of this scenario, including the possibility that tracks of the pre-big-bang may be found either in the spectrum of relic gravitons or in the distortion they induce on the cosmic microwave background.

  1. The emergent Big Bang scenario

    gr-qc 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    A clock field interacting with matter in a Riemannian 4D space creates emergent Lorentzian patches, replacing the Big Bang singularity with a smooth signature-flip boundary and allowing an almost de Sitter early phase.

  2. Is there ghost and tachyon free bounce in UV complete gravity theory?

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Ghost- and tachyon-free bounces in AID gravity require a negative cosmological constant; known positive-Λ solutions inevitably contain ghost radiation.

  3. Cosmological horizons in regular bouncing backgrounds

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In bouncing cosmological backgrounds, event and particle horizons can appear or disappear independently of the local expansion rate because they are determined by the full spacetime history.

  4. LISA as a probe of pre-big-bang physics: a nested sampling analysis

    gr-qc 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Nested sampling analysis indicates LISA could constrain H1, m, sigma_i and beta in the pre-big-bang model to relative uncertainties of about 18 percent under favorable conditions when including foregrounds.

  5. Lectures on Naturalness, String Landscape and Multiverse

    hep-th 2020-08 unverdicted novelty 1.0

    Lecture notes providing a technical introduction to naturalness problems and the string theory landscape for graduate students.

  6. Three Advanced Lectures on Inflation

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted

    Lecture notes providing an advanced introduction to primordial inflation theory and perturbation theory in slow-roll and quasi-de Sitter spacetimes.
