Title (deu)
Taxonomy of Infinite Distance Limits

Description (deu)
This talk is part of the thematic programme on "The Landscape vs. the Swampland". The emergent string conjecture places tight constraints on the possible behavior of light towers in infinite-distance limits in quantum gravity moduli spaces (as required by the distance conjecture). In this talk, I show how these constraints can be understood as a sort of geometric "classification" on vertices, edges, and facets of a polytope, and I discuss the scope of this classification, some evidence for it, and some applications of it.
