Six-dimensional Origin of SYM with Duality Defects
Benjamin Assel, Sakura Schafer-Nameki
We study the topologically twisted compactification of the 6d M5-brane theory on an elliptically fibered Kähler three-fold preserving two supercharges. We show that upon re…
Localization of supersymmetric field theories on non-compact hyperbolic three-manifolds
Benjamin Assel, Dario Martelli, Sameer Murthy +1
We study supersymmetric gauge theories with an R-symmetry, defined on non-compact, hyperbolic, Riemannian three-manifolds, focusing on the case of a supersymmetry-preserving quotie…
M5-branes on S^2 x M_4: Nahm's Equations and 4d Topological Sigma-models
Benjamin Assel, Sakura Schafer-Nameki, Jin-Mann Wong
We study the 6d N=(0,2) superconformal field theory, which describes multiple M5-branes, on the product space S^2 x M_4, and suggest a correspondence between a 2d N=(0,2) half-twis…
