We review applications of string theory to cosmology, from primordial times to the present-
day accelerated expansion. Starting with a brief overview of cosmology and string …

The Swampland program aims to determine the constraints that an effective field theory must
satisfy to be consistent with a UV embedding in a quantum gravity theory. Different …

The Swampland program aims to distinguish effective theories which can be completed into
quantum gravity in the ultraviolet from those which cannot. This article forms an introduction …

Among Swampland conditions, the distance conjecture characterizes the geometry of scalar
fields and the de Sitter conjecture constrains allowed potentials on it. We point out a …

We give a brief overview of the string landscape and techniques used to construct string
compactifications. We then explain how this motivates the notion of the swampland and …

The swampland is the set of seemingly consistent low-energy effective field theories that
cannot be consistently coupled to quantum gravity. In this review we cover some of the …

We study aspects of anti-de Sitter space in the context of the Swampland. In particular, we
conjecture that the near-flat limit of pure AdS belongs to the Swampland, as it is necessarily …

A bstract The Distance Conjecture holds that any infinite-distance limit in the scalar field
moduli space of a consistent theory of quantum gravity must be accompanied by a tower of …

A bstract It has been conjectured that in theories consistent with quantum gravity infinite
distances in field space coincide with an infinite tower of states becoming massless …

A bstract As a refinement of the Swampland Distance Conjecture, we propose that a
quantum gravitational theory in an infinite distance limit of its moduli space either …
