A Stringy Test of the Scalar Weak Gravity Conjecture
Seung-Joo Lee, Wolfgang Lerche, Timo Weigand
We prove a version of the Weak Gravity Conjecture for 6d F-theory or heterotic string compactifications with 8 supercharges. This sharpens our previous analysis by including massle…
Tensionless Strings and the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Seung-Joo Lee, Wolfgang Lerche, Timo Weigand
We test various conjectures about quantum gravity for six-dimensional string compactifications in the framework of F-theory. Starting with a gauge theory coupled to gravity, we ana…
6d SCFTs and U(1) Flavour Symmetries
Seung-Joo Lee, Diego Regalado, Timo Weigand
We study the behaviour of abelian gauge symmetries in six-dimensional N=(1,0) theories upon decoupling gravity and investigate abelian flavour symmetries in the context of 6d N=(1,…
