String probes, simple currents, and the no global symmetries conjecture

Guglielmo Lockhart, Luca Novelli, Yann Proto

Center one-form symmetries in consistent quantum gravity theories are expected to be either broken or gauged, thereby determining the global form of the gauge group. We shed light…

Rational points in the 6d supergravity landscape and simple current extensions

Guglielmo Lockhart, Yann Proto

We investigate a recently identified class of six-dimensional supergravities without tensor multiplets whose primitive BPS strings are described by a rational superconformal field…

M5 branes on ADE singularities: BPS spectrum and partition functions

Daniele Ceppi, Guglielmo Lockhart

The dynamics of a stack of M5 branes probing a transverse multi-centered Taub-NUT space are described by a class of 6d superconformal field theories known as th…

The hyperplane string, RCFTs, and the swampland

Guglielmo Lockhart, Luca Novelli

Six dimensional supergravity features BPS strings whose properties encode highly nontrivial information about the parent 6d theory. We focus on a distinguished…

The ALE Partition Functions of M-String Orbifolds

Michele Del Zotto, Guglielmo Lockhart

The ALE partition functions of a 6d (1,0) SCFT are interesting observables which are able to detect the global structure of the SCFT. They are defined to be the equivariant partiti…

The ALE Partition Functions of M-Strings

Michele Del Zotto, Guglielmo Lockhart

We compute the equivariant partition function of the six-dimensional M-string SCFTs on a background with the topology of a product of a two-dimensional torus and an ALE singularity…
