Gauge and gravitational instantons: From 3-forms and fermions to Weak Gravity and flat axion potentials
Arthur Hebecker, Philipp Henkenjohann
We investigate the role of gauge and gravitational instantons in the context of the Swampland program. Our focus is on the global symmetry breaking they induce, especially in the p…
Flat Monodromies and a Moduli Space Size Conjecture
Arthur Hebecker, Philipp Henkenjohann, Lukas T. Witkowski
We investigate how super-Planckian axions can arise when type IIB 3-form flux is used to restrict a two-axion field space to a one-dimensional winding trajectory. If one does not a…
What is the Magnetic Weak Gravity Conjecture for Axions?
Arthur Hebecker, Philipp Henkenjohann, Lukas T. Witkowski
The electric Weak Gravity Conjecture demands that axions with large decay constant couple to light instantons. The resulting large instantonic corrections pose problems for nat…
