All infinite distance limits in 5d N=1 supergravity vector moduli space are either unique-vector limits (6d decompactification) or unique-tensor limits (emergent string), under a weak BPS completeness assumption.

abstract
We study a five-dimensional field theory which contains a monopole (string) solution with chiral fermion zero modes. This monostring solution is a close analog of the fivebrane solution of M-theory. The cancellation of normal bundle anomalies parallels that for the M-theory fivebrane, in particular, the presence of a Chern-Simons term in the low-energy effective U(1) gauge theory plays a central role. We comment on the relationship between the the microscopic analysis of the world-volume theory and the low-energy analysis and draw some cautionary lessons for M-theory.

Asymptotics of 5d Supergravity Theories and the Emergent String Conjecture
All infinite distance limits in 5d N=1 supergravity vector moduli space are either unique-vector limits (6d decompactification) or unique-tensor limits (emergent string), under a weak BPS completeness assumption.
