Symmetry extension by condensation defects II: general dimensions and higher-groups

Matteo Bertolini, Lorenzo Di Pietro, Stefano C. Lanza +1

We discuss a class of symmetry structures in general spacetime dimension that arise when gauging symmetries in theories with a cubic 't Hooft anomaly. The anomaly mixes two Abelian…

The supergravity dual of a finite duality cascade

Pietro Moroni

This proceedings contribution summarizes the main results of the original paper arXiv:2506.18988. Cascading RG flows are characteristic of gauge theories realized b…

Confinement in a finite duality cascade

Fabrizio Aramini, Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini +2

We provide several consistency checks of confining dynamics in a recently conjectured holographic dual of a four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory that flows fro…

Gravity, finite duality cascades and confinement

Fabrizio Aramini, Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini +2

Cascading RG flows are characteristic of gauge theories realized by D3-branes probing singularities in the presence of fractional branes. A celebrated example is th…

On the Symmetry TFT of Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory

Riccardo Argurio, Francesco Benini, Matteo Bertolini +2

Three-dimensional Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory has the peculiar property that its one-form symmetry defects have non-trivial braiding, namely they are charged under the same symm…

On non-supersymmetric fixed points in five dimensions

Matteo Bertolini, Francesco Mignosa, Jesse van Muiden

We generalize recent results regarding the phase space of the mass deformed fixed point to a full class of five-dimensional superconformal field theories, known as .…
