Description

I will discuss the problem of scale hierarchies in string phenomenology of particle physics and cosmology and propose ways to address it. In particular I will present a mechanism for supersymmetry breaking in the presence of a tiny (tunable) positive cosmological constant, discuss connections of supersymmetry breaking and inflation, and describe their phenomenological consequences.
