In this brief note we consider the interaction between high spin excitations in string theory along the Regge trajectory and the Higuchi bound in de Sitter space. There is always a point along the Regge trajectory where the Higuchi bound is violated. However, this point precisely coincides with a string whose length is of order the de Sitter Hubble scale. String theory therefore manifests no immediate inconsistency as long as the string scale $M_s$ is above the Hubble scale $H$. However, an implication is that the Regge trajectory must be significantly modified at some ultraviolet scale. Insisting that this modification should occur no earlier than the Planck scale would lead to a bound on the string scale of $M_s > sqrt{H M_p}$.

We study the cosmic no-hair in the presence of spin-2 matter, i.e. in bimetric gravity. We obtain stable de Sitter solutions with the cosmological constant in the physical sector and find an evidence that the cosmic no-hair is correct. In the presenc
e of the other cosmological constant, there are two branches of de Sitter solutions. Under anisotropic perturbations, one of them is always stable and there is no violation of the cosmic no-hair at the linear level. The stability of the other branch depends on parameters and the cosmic no-hair can be violated in general. Remarkably, the bifurcation point of two branches exactly coincides with the Higuchi bound. It turns out that there exists a de Sitter solution for which the cosmic no-hair holds at the linear level and the effective mass for the anisotropic perturbations is above the Higuchi bound.
In this note we investigate bound states, where scalar and vector bosons are trapped by BPS vortices in the Abelian Higgs model with a critical ratio of the couplings. A class of internal modes of fluctuation around cylindrically symmetric BPS vortic
es is characterized mathematically, analysing the spectrum of the second-order fluctuation operator when the Higgs and vector boson masses are equal. A few of these bound states with low values of quantized magnetic flux are described fully, and their main properties are discussed.
A similarity transformation, which brings a particular class of the $N=1$ string to the $N=0$ one, is explicitly constructed. It enables us to give a simple proof for the argument recently proposed by Berkovits and Vafa. The $N=1$ BRST operator is tu
rned into the direct sum of the corresponding $N=0$ BRST operator and that for an additional topological sector. As a result, the physical spectrum of these $N=1$ vacua is shown to be isomorphic to the tensor product of the $N=0$ spectrum and the topological sector which consists of only the vacuum. This transformation manifestly keeps the operator algebra.
In String Gas Cosmology, the simplest shape modulus fields are naturally stabilized by taking into account the presence of string winding and momentum modes. We determine the resulting effective potential for these fields and show that it obeys the d
e Sitter conjecture, one of the swampland criteria for effective field theories to be consistent with superstring theory.
We recalculate in a systematic and pedagogical way one of the most important results of Bosonic open string theory in the light-cone formulation, namely the [J^{-i},J^{-j}] commutators, which together with Lorentz covariance, famously yield the criti
cal dimension D=26 and the normal order constant a=1. We use traditional transverse oscillator mode expansions (avoiding the elegant but more advanced language of operator product expansions). We streamline the proof by introducing a novel bookkeeping/regularization parameter kappa to avoid splitting into creation and annihilation parts, and to avoid sandwiching between bras and kets.
