On the Species Scale, Modular Invariance and the Gravitational EFT expansion
Alberto Castellano, Alvaro Herráez, Luis E. Ibáñez
The concept of the species scale as the quantum gravity cut-off has been recently emphasised in the context of the Swampland program. Along these lines, we continue the quest for a…
Entropy Bounds and the Species Scale Distance Conjecture
José Calderón-Infante, Alberto Castellano, Alvaro Herráez +1
The Swampland Distance Conjecture (SDC) states that, as we move towards an infinite distance point in moduli space, a tower of states becomes exponentially light with the geodesic…
Towers and Hierarchies in the Standard Model from Emergence in Quantum Gravity
Alberto Castellano, Álvaro Herráez, Luis E. Ibáñez
Based on Quantum Gravity arguments, it has been suggested that all kinetic terms of light particles below the UV cut-off could arise in the IR via quantum (loop) corrections. These…
