SUMMARY:The cosmological constant problem and its sequester - Antonio Padi

DESCRIPTION:We provide an  update on  vacuum energy sequestering (VES)\, a
  novel approach to the cosmological constant problem. We will review the m
 echanism for cancellation of vacuum energy loops yielding a technically na
 tural value for the cosmological constant for the low energy effective fie
 ld theory describing standard model matter coupled to gravity. We will pro
 vide an etude\, comparing our proposal with other related works that have 
 recently appeared in the literature. We will also comment on a new model i
 ndependent analysis  of self tuning or self adjustment\, orthogonal to Wei
 nberg’s famous work\, and clarify where VES fit into this picture throug
 h the power of decapitation
