Large N Universality of 4d N=1 SCFTs with Simple Gauge Groups

Minseok Cho, Ki-Hong Lee, Jaewon Song

We classify four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories with a simple gauge group admitting a large limit that flow to non-trivial superconformal fixed point…

A landscape of 4d N=1 SCFTs with a=c

Monica Jinwoo Kang, Craig Lawrie, Ki-Hong Lee +1

We study a landscape of four-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with identical central charges. These theories are obtained by renormalization group…

Generalized symmetry constraints on deformed 4d (S)CFTs

Monica Jinwoo Kang, Craig Lawrie, Ki-Hong Lee +1

We explore the consequence of generalized symmetries in four-dimensional superconformal field theories. First, we classify all possible supersymmetric gauge theorie…

Supersymmetric Cardy Formula and the Weak Gravity Conjecture in AdS/CFT

Minseok Cho, Sunjin Choi, Ki-Hong Lee +1

The Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) in anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS) asserts the existence of an operator in the boundary conformal field theory (CFT) whose scaling dimension-to-cha…

Operator spectroscopy for 4d SCFTs with a=c

Monica Jinwoo Kang, Craig Lawrie, Ki-Hong Lee +1

We study a rich set of four-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with both central charges identical: . These are constructed via the diagonal o…

Higgs, Coulomb, and Hall-Littlewood

Monica Jinwoo Kang, Craig Lawrie, Ki-Hong Lee +2

The Higgs branch of 4d SCFTs can be analyzed via the Hilbert series of the Higgs branch or, in special cases, by computing the Hall-Littlewood index. For any class…

Infinitely many 4d N=1 SCFTs with a=c

Monica Jinwoo Kang, Craig Lawrie, Ki-Hong Lee +1

We study a rich set of four-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with both central charges identical: . We construct them via the diagonal $\mat…

Bootstrapping BPS spectra of 5d/6d field theories

Hee-Cheol Kim, Minsung Kim, Sung-Soo Kim +1

We propose a systematic approach to computing the BPS spectra of any 5d/6d supersymmetric quantum field theory in Coulomb phases, which admits either gauge theory descriptions or g…

Classification of large N superconformal gauge theories with a dense spectrum

Prarit Agarwal, Ki-Hong Lee, Jaewon Song

We classify the large limits of four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories with simple gauge groups that flow to superconformal fixed points. We restrict ourselves to the o…

Instantons from Blow-up

Joonho Kim, Sung-Soo Kim, Ki-Hong Lee +2

We generalize Nakajima-Yoshioka blowup equations to arbitrary gauge group with hypermultiplets in arbitrary representations. Using our blowup equations, we compute the instanton pa…

6d strings and exceptional instantons

Hee-Cheol Kim, Joonho Kim, Seok Kim +2

We propose new ADHM-like methods to compute the Coulomb branch instanton partition functions of 5d and 6d supersymmetric gauge theories, with certain exceptional gauge groups or ex…
