Small instanton transitions for M5 fractions
Noppadol Mekareeya, Kantaro Ohmori, Hiroyuki Shimizu +1
M5-branes on an ADE singularity are described by certain six-dimensional "conformal matter" superconformal field theories. Their Higgs moduli spaces contain information about vario…

Anomaly constraints on deconfinement and chiral phase transition
Hiroyuki Shimizu, Kazuya Yonekura
We study constraints on thermal phase transitions of gauge theories by using the 't Hooft anomaly involving the center symmetry and chiral symmetry. We consider two…

Anomaly matching on the Higgs branch
Hiroyuki Shimizu, Yuji Tachikawa, Gabi Zafrir
We point out that we can almost always determine by the anomaly matching the full anomaly polynomial of a supersymmetric theory in 2d, 4d or 6d if we assume that its Higgs branch i…
