The DGKT scenario and the Weak Gravity Conjecture

Abstract: I will discuss how generic quantum corrections lift the moduli space of BPS branes in 4d N=1 scale-separated solutions like DGKT. This means that there is a tension between this scenario and the WGC for membranes, which demands the existence of an exactly extremal brane. Similar tensions exist in any 4d N=1 scenario not protected by a parity symmetry, and I will mention some examples.
