Transplanckian Censorship and the Local Swampland Distance Conjecture
Patrick Draper, Szilard Farkas
The swampland distance conjecture (SDC) addresses the ability of effective field theory to describe distant points in moduli space. It is natural to ask whether there is a local ve…

Gravitational Instabilities and Censorship of Large Scalar Field Excursions
Patrick Draper, Szilard Farkas
Large, localized variations of light scalar fields tend to collapse into black holes, dynamically "censoring" distant points in field space. We show that in some cases, large scala…
