Strengthening the de Sitter swampland conjecture in warm inflation

Abstract The de Sitter constraint on the space of effective scalar field theories consistent with superstring theory provides a lower bound on the slope of the potential of a scalar field which dominates the evolution of the Universe, e.g., a hypothetical inflaton field. Whereas models of single sca...
