EFT (String) Tower Building
Alessandra Grieco, Ignacio Ruiz, Irene Valenzuela
We develop a bottom-up framework to reconstruct the asymptotic spectrum of light towers in four-dimensional effective field theories directly from their Kähler pote…
Bordisms between 9d type IIB supergravities and commutator widths of duality groups
Camilo las Heras, Ignacio Ruiz
We study the topological properties of bordisms interpolating between different 9d gauged supergravities obtained from compactification of type IIB string theory on …
A missing link: Brane networks and the Cobordism Conjecture
Markus Dierigl, Ignacio Ruiz
The absence of global symmetries in a quantum gravity theory often requires the introduction of (new) symmetry-breaking defects, which appear as singular objects in the low-energy…
The dark dimension, proton decay, and the length of the M-theory interval
Mario Reig, Ignacio Ruiz
The existence of a large extra dimension in which only gravity propagates would have spectacular consequences for cosmology and laboratory experiments. In the strong coupling limit…
EFT strings and dualities in 4d
Alessandra Grieco, Ignacio Ruiz, Irene Valenzuela
We investigate the global structure of the states becoming light at perturbative limits of 4d string and M-theory compactifications, identifying the different duali…
Morse-Bott inequalities, Topology Change and Cobordisms to Nothing
Ignacio Ruiz
The Cobordism Conjecture predicts spacetime-ending configurations, such as Bubbles of Nothing (BoN), being commonplace. These correspond to vacuum decays in which the compactificat…
