de Sitter vacua in O(d,d) invariant cosmology (2024)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Padilla, A., Saffin, P. M., & Smith, R. G. C. (2024). de Sitter vacua in O(d,d) invariant cosmology. Physical Review D, 110(6), Article 063522. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.110.063522

We perform a thorough analysis of de Sitter solutions in O⁡(𝑑,𝑑) invariant cosmologies. Starting with a homogeneous and isotropic framework we examine conditions for the existence of such solutions to the vacuum field equations, nonperturbative in 𝛼′...

Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT (2024)
Journal Article
Padilla, A., & Smith, R. G. (2024). Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT. Physical Review D, 110(2), Article 025010. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.110.025010

Inspired by the method of smoothed asymptotics developed by Terence Tao, we introduce a new ultraviolet regularisation scheme for loop integrals in quantum field theory which we call η regularisation. This reveals a connection between the elimination... Read More about Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT.

Ringdowns for black holes with scalar hair: The large mass case (2024)
Journal Article
D’Addario, G., Padilla, A., Saffin, P. M., Sotiriou, T. P., & Spiers, A. (2024). Ringdowns for black holes with scalar hair: The large mass case. Physical Review D, 109(8), Article 084046. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.084046

Deviations from general relativity can alter the quasinormal mode (QNM) ringdown of perturbed black holes. It is known that a shift-symmetric (hence massless) scalar can only introduce black hole hair if it couples to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant, in w...
