Strongly-coupled black holes (are not) at weak coupling
Ben Heidenreich, Matteo Lotito
We prove sharp bounds on the moduli space excursion that is possible outside the event horizon of a spherically symmetric charged black hole. In regions where the black hole charge…

The weak gravity conjecture in perturbative strings
Matteo Lotito
In this note we give a summary of [arXiv:2401.14449] in which we proposed a proof of the weak gravity conjecture in perturbative string theory. While the WGC is well established, c…

UV/IR relations from the worldsheet
Christian Aoufia, Ivano Basile, Giorgio Leone +1
We derive universal scaling relations for the low-energy effective action of string theory, connecting the vacuum energy and gauge couplings to higher-derivative Wilson coefficient…
