4d N=1 from 6d (1,0)
Shlomo S. Razamat, Cumrun Vafa, Gabi Zafrir
We study the geometry of 4d N=1 SCFT's arising from compactification of 6d (1,0) SCFT's on a Riemann surface. We show that the conformal manifold of the resulting theory is charact…
Exceptionally simple exceptional models
Shlomo S. Razamat, Gabi Zafrir
We discuss models with no dynamical vector fields in various dimensions which we claim might have exceptional symmetry on some loci of their parameter space. In particular we const…
Compactifications of 5d SCFTs with a twist
Gabi Zafrir
We study the compactification of 5d SCFTs to 4d on a circle with a twist in a discrete global symmetry element of these SCFTs. We present evidence that this leads to various 4d N=2…
Brane webs in the presence of an -plane and 4d class S theories of type D
Gabi Zafrir
In this article we conjecture a relationship between 5d SCFT's, that can be engineered by 5-brane webs in the presence of an -plane, and 4d class S theories of type D. The sp…
