Constraints on Dark Energy Models from Weak Gravity Conjecture

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

We study the constraints on the dark energy model with constant equation of state parameter w=p/ρw=p/\rho and the holographic dark energy model by using the weak gravity conjecture. The combination of weak gravity conjecture and the observational data gives w<0.7w<-0.7 at the 3σ3\sigma confidence level. The holographic dark energy model realized by a scalar field is in swampland.
