Supersymmetric Observables from Surface Defect Anomalies in 4d and 6d SCFTs
Zi-Xiao Huang, Ma-Ke Yuan, Yang Zhou
We study the contributions of half-BPS surface defects to supersymmetric Casimir energy and the universal logarithmic term of supersymmetric Rényi entropy in four- and six-dimensio…

From Weyl Anomaly to Defect Supersymmetric Rényi Entropy and Casimir Energy
Zi-Xiao Huang, Ma-Ke Yuan, Yang Zhou
We present a closed-form expression for the contribution of surface defects to the supersymmetric Rényi entropy in six-dimensional theories. Our results show that this defe…
