Classical Black Hole Probes of UV Scales
José Calderón-Infante, Matilda Delgado, Yixuan Li +2
In the context of the Swampland program, black hole attractors have been employed to probe infinite distances in moduli space, where the EFT cutoff goes to zero in Planck units and…
KKLT Ex Nihilo
Iosif Bena, Yixuan Li, Severin Lüst
Flux compactifications that give three- or four-dimensional Anti de Sitter vacua with a parametrically small negative cosmological constant are claimed to be ubiquitous in String T…
Towards AdS Distances in String Theory
Yixuan Li, Eran Palti, Nicolò Petri
The AdS Distance Conjecture proposes to assign a notion of distance between AdS vacua in quantum gravity. We perform some initial developments of this idea. We first propose more s…
Local supersymmetries and three-charge black holes
Yixuan Li
Local supersymmetry enhancement (LSE) is a formalism intended to identify information needed to describe microstates of supersymmetric black holes that are realised as brane system…
The (amazing) Super-Maze
Iosif Bena, Shaun D. Hampton, Anthony Houppe +2
The entropy of the three-charge NS5-F1-P black hole in Type IIA string theory comes from the breaking of F1 strings into little strings, which become independent mo…
Resolving Black-Hole Microstructure with New Momentum Carriers
Iosif Bena, Nejc Ceplak, Shaun Hampton +3
All known horizonless black-hole microstate geometries correspond to brane sources that acquire a finite size, and hence break the spherical symmetry of the black hole. We construc…
An Alliance in the Tripartite Conflict over Moduli Space
Yixuan Li
We investigate three proposals of distance on the moduli space of metrics: (1) a distance derived from the symplectic form of phase space, (2) a distance obtained by moving BPS obj…
Toroidal Tidal Effects in Microstate Geometries
Nejc Ceplak, Shaun Hampton, Yixuan Li
Tidal effects in capped geometries computed in previous literature display no dynamics along internal (toroidal) directions. However, the dual CFT picture suggests otherwise. To re…
Gravitational Footprints of Black Holes and Their Microstate Geometries
Ibrahima Bah, Iosif Bena, Pierre Heidmann +2
We construct a family of non-supersymmetric extremal black holes and their horizonless microstate geometries in four dimensions. The black holes can have finite angular momentum an…
Black Holes and the Swampland: the Deep Throat revelations
Yixuan Li
Multi-centered bubbling solutions are black hole microstate geometries that arise as smooth solutions of 5-dimensional Supergravity. When these solutions reach the…
Cosmological consequences of Omnia Sequestra
Ben Coltman, Yixuan Li, Antonio Padilla
Vacuum energy sequestering is a mechanism for cancelling off the radiative corrections to vacuum energy. The most comprehensive low energy model, proposed in 1606.04958 [hep-th], h…
