Description

I will discuss the problem of scale hierarchies in particle physics and cosmology and propose ways to address it. In particular I will present a proposal to connect the scales of supersymmetry breaking and inflation in the presence of a tiny but tuneable positive cosmological constant in the electroweak vacuum and describe its phenomenological consequences.
