Tinkertoys for the Theory

Oscar Chacaltana, Jacques Distler, Anderson Trimm +1

We construct the 4D N=2 SCFTs of class-S, which stem from the (2,0) theory. There are 49,836 isolated SCFTs which arise as 3-punctured spheres. Of these, 149 are "mixed" (con…

A Family of Interacting SCFTs from the Twisted Series

Oscar Chacaltana, Jacques Distler, Anderson Trimm

We find an infinite family of interacting superconformal field theories which enter the description of the strong-coupling limit of gauge theories w…

Nilpotent orbits and codimension-two defects of 6d N=(2,0) theories

Oscar Chacaltana, Jacques Distler, Yuji Tachikawa

We study the local properties of a class of codimension-2 defects of the 6d N=(2,0) theories of type J=A,D,E labeled by nilpotent orbits of a Lie algebra \mathfrak{g}, where \mathf…
