Tunneling constraints on effective theories of stable de Sitter space
Tunneling constraints on effective theories of stable de Sitter space
We argue that effective field theories compatible with the idea of cosmological supersymmetry breaking (CSB) can have no supersymmetric vacuum states in the ${M}_{P}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$ limit. We introduce a revised version of the pyramid scheme, which satisfies this criterion. Combining the criteria for CSB with results of Nelson and Seiberg, any …
