Iterative Gauging is Deconstruction

Sebastian Franco, Diego Rodriguez-Gomez

A recent construction showed that iteratively gauging symmetries of a quantum field theory can generate an emergent extra spatial dimension. Here we identify the precise mechanism…

Towards Generalized Dimers for GTPs: Fractional Branes at Infinite Coupling

Sebastián Franco, Diego Rodríguez-Gómez

Generalized Toric Polygons (GTPs) extend the geometric realization of superconformal field theories beyond toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds to general 5-brane webs ending on 7…

On the Origin of Toric Diagrams

Sebastián Franco, Diego Rodríguez-Gómez

Five-dimensional superconformal field theories ( SCFTs) can be encoded by Generalized Toric Polygons (GTPs), where external legs of the dual five-brane web correspond t…

Boundary Layers and One-point Functions in the Presence of Monodromy Defects

Hugo Calvo Castro, Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Diego Rodriguez-Gomez

We study one-point functions of composites of charge operators in the presence of a monodromy defect for a global symmetry with monodromy . We first compute these in…

A Hilbert Series for Generalized Toric Polygons

Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Sebastián Franco, Diego Rodríguez-Gómez

We study the Hilbert series for Superconformal Field Theories (SCFTs) engineered by Generalized Toric Polygons (GTPs), which extend the geometric realization of these theories…

The 5d Tangram: Brane Webs, 7-Branes and Primitive T-cones

Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Sebastián Franco, Diego Rodríguez-Gómez

Two highly successful approaches to constructing 5d SCFTs are geometric engineering using M-theory on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold and the use of 5-brane webs suspended from 7-branes in Typ…

The Geometry of GTPs and 5d SCFTs

Guillermo Arias-Tamargo, Sebastián Franco, Diego Rodríguez-Gómez

We make progress in understanding the geometry associated to the Generalized Toric Polygons (GTPs) encoding the Physics of 5d Superconformal Field Theories (SCFTs), by exploiting t…

Exact Deconstruction of the 6D (2,0) Theory

Joseph Hayling, Constantinos Papageorgakis, Elli Pomoni +1

The dimensional-deconstruction prescription of Arkani-Hamed, Cohen, Kaplan, Karch and Motl provides a mechanism for recovering the -type (2,0) theories on , starting from a…
