A detailed one-loop derivation shows that the species scale can be computed consistently with infinite convergent towers of states, resolving an apparent tension between infinite towers and effective field theory.

abstract
In hep-th/0501082, a field theoretic ``toy model'' for the Landscape was proposed. We show that the considerations of that paper carry through to realistic effective Lagrangians, such as those that emerge out of string theory. Extracting the physics of the large number of metastable vacua that ensue requires somewhat more sophisticated algebro-geometric techniques, which we review.

EFT & Species Scale: Friends or foes?
A detailed one-loop derivation shows that the species scale can be computed consistently with infinite convergent towers of states, resolving an apparent tension between infinite towers and effective field theory.
