In the Emergence Proposal in Quantum Gravity it is conjectured that all light-particle kinetic terms are absent in the fundamental ultraviolet theory and are generated by quantum corrections in the infrared. It has been argued that this may provide for some microscopic understanding of the Weak Gravity and Distance conjectures. In the present paper we take the first steps towards a systematic study of Emergence in the context of string theory. We emphasize the crucial role of the species scale in any effective field theory coupled to gravity, and discuss its computation in string theory and general systems with light towers of states. We then introduce the notion of Emergence and show how kinetic terms for moduli, gauge bosons and fermions may be generated. One-loop computations play an important role in Emergence, so we present detailed calculations in d spacetime dimensions for the wave-function renormalization of scalars, vectors and fermions. We extend and check the Emergence Proposal in a number string vacua, including 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 theories arising from type IIA on a CY3, where the towers at strong coupling are comprised by D0 and (wrapped) D2-branes, and also elaborate on how instanton corrections would fit within the emergence picture. Higher dimensional examples are also discussed, including 6d and 7d models arising from F-/M-theory on an elliptic CY3 or a K3 surface. We also consider 10d string theories and study in some detail the emergence mechanism in type IIA. We show as well how the flux potential in 4d may be obtained from the emergence prescription, by analyzing the corresponding decompactification limits to M-theory. We find that the required kinetic terms for the dual 3-form fields can arise upon integrating out towers of massive gravitini (and bosonic superpartners). Our analysis renders support to the Emergence Proposal, and to the idea that infinite distance singularities may arise in Quantum Gravity as an intrinsic infrared phenomenon.

En el marco general de la revisión de la política de investigación del Instituto de Investigaciones de FCES, surge la necesidad de establecer un mecanismo formal de monitoreo de la demanda con la finalidad de atender las necesidades del entorno, tomando como base teórica la metodología propuesta por el Prof. Leopoldo Paredes en su libro. Dicho mecanismo consta de los siguientes pasos: a) Seleccionar las instituciones representativas del entorno, b) Establecer el contacto inicial, c) Recopilación de la información, d) Procesamiento de la información, e) Verificación de las capacidades institucionales, 1) Diagnóstico de posibles requerimientos, g)Adecuar las capacidades internas a los requerimientos de la demanda. y h) Revisión permanente. El establecimiento de esta metodología permitirá legitimar las investigaciones debido a que las mismas responderán a necesidades ciertas presentadas por el entorno.
