If Euclidean wormholes contribute meaningfully to the path integral of quantum gravity they can have important implications for particle physics and cosmology. The dominant effects arise from wormholes whose sizes are comparable to the cut-off scale of effective field theory, for which ultraviolet corrections become relevant. We study corrections to classical axion wormhole solutions in string motivated scenarios in which the dilaton partner of the axion becomes massive. We find corrections near the neck region which are consistent with a recent version of the weak gravity conjecture for axions.

  1. Domain Walls From Confining Bubbles: $SU(N_{c})$ Yang Mills at Finite $\theta$

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A nonzero theta angle weakens supercooling in SU(Nc) Yang-Mills confinement and makes any resulting domain-wall gravitational-wave signal invisible except under severe fine-tuning.

  2. Non-invertible symmetries in the axiverse, and the imaginary wormholes

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Imaginary wormholes and the IDB imply that towers of BPS EFT instantons generate infinitely many superpotential terms that break non-invertible axion shift symmetries in N=1 axiverse models.

  3. Euclidean wormholes stability analysis revisited

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Even-parity perturbations of Euclidean axion wormholes have finite, positive quadratic actions when the constraint equations are solved differently, so prior exclusions of these modes were artifacts and the known stab...

  4. Prepare inflationary universe via the Euclidean charged wormhole

    gr-qc 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A semiclassical Euclidean charged wormhole with an anti-de Sitter boundary can, in a fine-tuned potential, assign higher probability to a longer inflationary period, but it does not beat the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary state.
