Gravitational Correction and Weak Gravity Conjecture
We consider the gravitational correction to the running of gauge coupling.

gravitational correction becomes greater than the contribution from gauge
theories. This observation can be generalized to non-Abelian gauge theories in
diverse dimensions and the cases with large extra dimensions.Comment: 8 pages; minor correction and refs adde
