We explore the Emergence Proposal for the moduli metric and the gauge couplings in a concrete model with 7 saxionic and 7 axionic moduli fields, namely the compactification of the type IIA superstring on a 6-dimensional toroidal orbifold. We show that consistency requires integrating out precisely the 12 towers of light particle species arising from KK and string/brane winding modes and one asymptotically tensionless string up to the species scale. After pointing out an issue with the correct definition of the species scale in the presence of string towers, we carry out the emergence computation and find that the KK and winding modes indeed impose the classical moduli dependence on the one-loop corrections, while the emergent string induces moduli dependent logarithmic suppressions. The interpretation of these results for the Emergence Proposal are discussed revealing a couple of new and still not completely settled aspects.

  1. Tame Complexity of Effective Field Theories in the Quantum Gravity Landscape

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Effective field theories consistent with quantum gravity are conjectured to have uniformly bounded 'tame complexity', a quantitative measure of the information needed to specify them.

  2. Co-Scaling and Alignment of Electric and Magnetic Towers

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Electric and magnetic BPS towers in 5d supergravity are conjectured to co-scale and align, and a new S-map is conjectured to characterize the magnetic infinity cone of a Calabi-Yau threefold.

  3. Moduli-Space Laplacians, Asymptotic Geometry, and the Emergent String Conjecture

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under the Emergent String Conjecture, the logarithm of any principal tower mass has a moduli-space Laplacian eigenvalue quantized to N/(D-d) for KK towers and N/2 for string oscillators, equal to the instanton-weighte...
