Flop transitions in M-theory cosmology

We study flop transitions for M-theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds and their applications to cosmology in the context of the effective five-dimensional supergravity theory. In particular, the additional hypermultiplet which becomes massless at the transition is included in the effective action. We find...
