    • Dynamical Compactification from de Sitter Space 

      Carroll, Sean M.; Johnson, Matthew C.; Randall, Lisa (Springer, 2009)
      We show that \(D\)-dimensional de Sitter space is unstable to the nucleation of non-singular geometries containing spacetime regions with different numbers of macroscopic dimensions, leading to a dynamical mechanism of ...
    • TeV Scale Singlet Dark Matter 

      Pontón, Eduardo; Randall, Lisa (Springer Verlag, 2009)
      It is well known that stable weak scale particles are viable dark matter candidates since the annihilation cross section is naturally about the right magnitude to leave the correct thermal residual abundance. Many dark ...
    • Warped \(AdS_3\) Black Holes 

      Anninos, Dionysios; Li, Wei; Padi, Megha; Song, Wei; Strominger, Andrew E. (Institute of Physics, 2009)
      Three dimensional topologically massive gravity (TMG) with a negative cosmological constant \(-\ell^{-2}\) and positive Newton constant \(G\) admits an \(AdS_3\) vacuum solution for any value of the graviton mass \(\mu\). ...
