In this paper we use Euclidean gravity methods to show that charged black holes which are sufficiently close to extremality must be able to decay. The argument proceeds by showing that Euclidean gravity would otherwise imply a violation of charge quantization. As this is the assumption which leads to the weak gravity conjecture, our argument gives a derivation of that conjecture. We use a small negative cosmological constant as an infrared regulator, but our argument applies to near-extremal black holes which are arbitrarily small compared to the $AdS$ curvature scale. We also give a universal formula for the density of black hole microstates which transform in each irreducible representation of any finite gauge group. Since each representation appears with nonzero fraction, this gives a new proof of the completeness hypothesis for finite gauge fields. Based on these observations we make two conjectures about many-body quantum physics: we propose a lower bound on the critical temperature for the instability of a semi-local quantum liquid, and we propose that our formula for the density of black hole microstates in each representation of a finite gauge group also applies at high energy to any quantum field theory with a finite group global symmetry.
We generalize the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis to systems with global symmetries. We present t
In a gravitational theory with a massless photon the maximum charge-to-mass ratio of black holes approaches the prediction of the Einstein-Maxwell theory as black hole mass increases: $Q_{rm ext}/M =1+ alpha/M^2$ for some constant $alpha$. We will sh
We study holographic shear sum rules in Einstein gravity with curvature squared corrections. Sum rules relate weighted integral over spectral densities of retarded correlators in the shear channel to the one point functions of the CFTs. The proportio
We investigate the emergence of ${cal N}=1$ supersymmetry in the long-range behavior of three-dimensional parity-symmetric Yukawa systems. We discuss a renormalization approach that manifestly preserves supersymmetry whenever such symmetry is realize
The Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) was proposed to constrain Effective Field Theories (EFTs) with Abelian gauge symmetry coupled to gravity. In this article, I study the WGC from low energy observers perspective, and revisit the issue of to what exten
