“…There have been numerous efforts attempting to explore the effects of string theory in cosmology [2] - [21]. One could characterize the main aims of many of these studies as either an attempt to utilize the additional degrees of freedom in the massless sector to induce inflation [2,3,6,7,8,10,11] or developing arguments on the type of modifications to Einstein gravity which are necessary to avoid a cosmological singularity [9,13,14,16,18,19,20].…”
