We comment on S. Carlip's recent Letter "Hiding the Cosmological Constant" [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 131302].
A recent preprint by Wang and Unruh [arXiv:1911.06110] contains a number of criticisms of my paper, "Hiding the cosmological constant" [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123 (2019) 131302, arXiv:1809.08277]. While Wang and Unruh suggest an interesting…
Various contributions to the cosmological constant are discussed and confronted with its recent measurement. We briefly review different scenarious -- and their difficulties -- for a solution of the cosmological constant problem.
The issue of the cosmological constant is discussed in details and a solution to the problem is suggested.
This is a reply to the Comment by S.-Y. Wang concerning our paper "Modified Coulomb Law in a Strongly Magnetized Vacuum"
This is a review of the physics and cosmology of the cosmological constant. Focusing on recent developments, I present a pedagogical overview of cosmology in the presence of a cosmological constant, observational constraints on its…
The arguments of statistical nature for the existence of constituents of active gravitational masses are presented. The present paper proposes a basis for microscopic theory of universal gravitation. Questions like the relation of…
Recent cosmological observations suggest the existence of a positive cosmological constant $\Lambda$ with the magnitude $\Lambda(G\hbar/c^3) \approx 10^{-123}$. This review discusses several aspects of the cosmological constant both from…
This is a talk given at the conference ``Critical Dialogues in Cosmology'' at Princeton University, June 24-- 27, 1996. It gives a brief summary of our present theoretical understanding regarding the value of the cosmological constant, and…

This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to the too limited range of the current version of the model (the dark energy fraction is constant, but it has to be a function of the scale factor). We will resubmit the paper after…
We present here a note which synthesizes our previous ideas concerning some problems in cosmology, and the numerical correspondences between the physical constants that we could deduce.
Comment on a recent paper published in Physical Review Letters by M. C. Wang, S. Qiao, Z. Jiang, S. N. Luo, and J. Qi [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 036601 (2016), arXiv:1511.02994v2].
The author proposed in his previous papers in 2001 that the problem of the cosmological constant could be resolved and its calculated value agrees excellently with the observations by assuming that the space-time itself, as the phase of…
Two sides of cosmological constant problem are discussed: a mysterious compensation of all contributions to vacuum energy with the accuracy of 100-50 orders of magnitude and a surprising equality of a constant vacuum energy density to the…
In this Reply, using E.R. Bezerra de Mello's comment, I correct calculations and results presented in Phys. Lett. B 614 (2005) 140-142 about fine structure constant in the spacetime of a cosmic string.
A Comment on the Letter by C. F. Qiao and L. Tang, Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 221601 (2014) [arXiv:1408.3995]
This paper has been withdrawn by the second author since he is suspected by the first author (the corresponding author) of commiting plagiarism.
This paper has been withdrawn since the material in these notes has been updated, and extended, in hep-th/0409031 and hep-th/0409033, and in work to follow.
We show that the criticism of our paper [Phys. Rev. B 65, 125109 (2002)] by Wang, Millis, and Das Sarma [cond-mat/0206203] is based on a trivial mathematical mistake they have committed.
