Flowing from 16 to 32 Supercharges
arXiv:1807.02785 · doi:10.1007/JHEP10(2018)175
Abstract
We initiate a study of an infinite set of renormalization group flows with accidental supersymmetry enhancement. The ultraviolet fixed points are strongly interacting four-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with no known Lagrangian descriptions, and the infrared fixed points are SCFTs with thirty-two (Poincaré plus special) supercharges.
