Infinite distance and zero gauge coupling in 5D supergravity

چکیده
In this note, we prove that for all five-dimensional supergravities arising from M-theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold, points of vanishing gauge coupling lie at infinite distance in the moduli space. Conversely, any point vector multiplet space is coupling. This agrees with expectations Tower/Sublattice Weak Gravity Conjecture, Swampland Distance and Emergence Proposal.

Gravitons and gauge fields in 5d Chern-Simons supergravity
Despite the nice geometrical properties of higher dimensional Chern-Simons (CS) supergravity theories these actions suffer from one major drawback, namely, their connection with the real world. After some quick remarks on three-dimensional gravity, we consider five-dimensional CS supergravity and study to what extend this theory reproduces the standard low energy description of gravitons and ga...
متن کاملFayet-Iliopoulos Terms in 5D Orbifold Supergravity
We discuss a locally supersymmetric formulation for the boundary Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) terms in 5-dimensional U(1) gauge theory on S/Z2, using the four-form multiplier mechanism to introduce the necessary Z2-odd FI coefficient. The physical consequence of the boundary FI terms is studied within the full supergravity framework. For both models giving a flat and a warped spacetime geometry, the o...
متن کاملTopological Objects in 5D Maxwell Einstein Supergravity
In this letter is shown that it is possible to obtain scalar hypersurfaces in 5D N=2 SUGRA where the allowed regions with positive definite scalar metric have a non-trivial topology. This situation may aid in the construction of domain wall solutions which confine gravity to 4 dimensions.
متن کاملGauge Charges from Supergravity
Some recent results in the study of four dimensional supergravity flux compactifications are reviewed, discussing in particular the role of torsion on the compactification manifold in generating gauge charges for the effective four dimensional theories.
متن کاملGauge Coupling Unification and Neutrino Masses in 5d Susy So(10)
In this talk I discuss the problems and virtues of SUSY GUTs in four dimensions. I then show how to solve some of these problems, without foregoing the virtues, by considering an SO(10) SUSY GUT in five dimensions. I discuss gauge coupling unification and neutrino masses. In particular, it is shown that the 5D compactification scale and cutoff scale are determined by fitting the low energy valu...
