Membrane Limits in Quantum Gravity

Álvarez-García, Rafael, Kläwer, Daniel, Weigand, Timo

Understand

It is expected that infinite distance limits in the moduli space of quantum gravity are accompanied by a tower of light states.

In view of the emergent string conjecture, this tower must either induce a decompactification or correspond to the emergence of a tensionless critical string.
We study the consistency conditions implied by this conjecture on the asymptotic behavior of quantum gravity under dimensional reduction.
If the emergent string descends from a (2+1)-dimensional membrane in a higher-dimensional theory, we find that such a membrane must parametrically decouple from the Kaluza-Klein scale.
