Using the recent observations of the relation between Hartle-Hawking wave function and topological string partition function, we propose a wave function for scalar metric fluctuations on S^3 embedded in a Calabi-Yau. This problem maps to a study of non-critical bosonic string propagating on a circle at the self-dual radius. This can be viewed as a stringy toy model for a quantum cosmology.

  1. Optimal paths across potentials on scalar field space

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Optimal transport yields a generalized Wasserstein distance on field space, obtained from a WKB expansion of a Schrödinger equation and extended to dynamical gravity via the Wheeler-DeWitt equation in the ADM formalism.
