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…
One Loop to Rule Them All: Eight and Nine Dimensional String Vacua from Junctions
Mirjam Cvetic, Markus Dierigl, Ling Lin +1
String and 5-brane junctions are shown to succinctly classify all known 8d =1 string vacua. This requires an extension of the description for ordinary -7-branes to…
Higher Symmetries of 5d Orbifold SCFTs
Michele Del Zotto, Jonathan J. Heckman, Shani Nadir Meynet +2
We determine the higher symmetries of 5d SCFTs engineered from M-theory on a background for a finite subgroup of . This resolves a longstanding questi…
On the Gauge Group Topology of 8d CHL Vacua
Mirjam Cvetic, Markus Dierigl, Ling Lin +1
Compactifications of the CHL string to eight dimensions can be characterized by embeddings of root lattices into the rank 12 momentum lattice , the so-called Mikhailov lattice…
Higher-Form Symmetries and Their Anomalies in M-/F-Theory Duality
Mirjam Cvetic, Markus Dierigl, Ling Lin +1
We explore higher-form symmetries of M- and F-theory compactified on elliptic fibrations, determined by the topology of their asymptotic boundaries. The underlying geometric struct…
EFT of 6D SUSY RG Flows
Jonathan J. Heckman, Sandipan Kundu, Hao Y. Zhang
Motivated by its potential use in constraining the structure of 6D renormalization group flows, we determine the low energy dilaton-axion effective field theory of conformal and gl…
