Self-Binding Energies in AdS
Stefano Andriolo, Marco Michel, Eran Palti
The Positive Binding Conjecture is a proposed formulation of the Weak Gravity Conjecture appropriate to Anti de-Sitter (AdS) space. It proposes that in a consistent gravitational t…
Axion wormholes with massive dilaton
Stefano Andriolo, Gary Shiu, Pablo Soler +1
If Euclidean wormholes contribute meaningfully to the path integral of quantum gravity they can have important implications for particle physics and cosmology. The dominant effects…
Duality and Axionic Weak Gravity
Stefano Andriolo, Tzu-Chen Huang, Toshifumi Noumi +2
The axionic weak gravity conjecture predicts the existence of instantons whose actions are less than their charges in appropriate units. We show that the conjecture is satisfied fo…
String Landscape and Fermion Masses
Stefano Andriolo, Shing Yan Li, S. -H. Henry Tye
Besides the string scale, string theory has no parameter except some quantized flux values; and the string theory Landscape is generated by scanning over discrete values of all the…
The Cosmological Constant and the Electroweak Scale
Stefano Andriolo, Shing Yan Li, S. H. Henry Tye
String theory has no parameter except the string scale, so a dynamically compactified solution to 4 dimensional spacetime should determine both the Planck scale and the cosmologica…
Compact G2 holonomy spaces from SU(3) structures
Stefano Andriolo, Gary Shiu, Hagen Triendl +3
We construct novel classes of compact G2 spaces from lifting type IIA flux backgrounds with O6 planes. There exists an extension of IIA Calabi-Yau orientifolds for which some of th…
A Tower Weak Gravity Conjecture from Infrared Consistency
Stefano Andriolo, Daniel Junghans, Toshifumi Noumi +1
We analyze infrared consistency conditions of 3D and 4D effective field theories with massive scalars or fermions charged under multiple gauge fields. At low energies, one c…
