6d SCFTs, Center-Flavor Symmetries, and Stiefel--Whitney Compactifications
Jonathan J. Heckman, Craig Lawrie, Ling Lin +2
The center-flavor symmetry of a gauge theory specifies the global form of consistent gauge and flavor bundle background field configurations. For 6d gauge theories which arise from…
