Topological Stars and Black Holes
Ibrahima Bah, Pierre Heidmann
We study smooth bubble spacetimes in five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory that resemble four-dimensional magnetic black holes upon Kaluza-Klein reduction. We denote them as Top…

Discrete and higher-form symmetries in SCFTs from wrapped M5-branes
Ibrahima Bah, Federico Bonetti, Ruben Minasian
We analyze topological mass terms of BF type arising in supersymmetric M-theory compactifications to . These describe spontaneously broken higher-form gauge symmetries in th…

Anomaly Inflow Methods for SCFT Constructions in Type IIB
Ibrahima Bah, Federico Bonetti, Ruben Minasian +1
We extend the anomaly inflow methods developed in M-theory to SCFTs engineered via D3-branes in type IIB. We show that the 't Hooft anomalies of such SCFTs can be computed systemat…
