3d Coulomb branch and 5d Higgs branch at infinite coupling

Giulia Ferlito, Amihay Hanany, Noppadol Mekareeya +1

The Higgs branch of minimally supersymmetric five dimensional SQCD theories increases in a significant way at the UV fixed point when the inverse gauge coupling is tuned to zero. I…

Between symmetry and duality in supersymmetric QFT

Shlomo S. Razamat, Orr Sela, Gabi Zafrir

We study two cases of interrelations between enhancement of symmetries in the infra red (IR) and duality properties of supersymmetric quantum field theories in four dimensions. Fir…

E_8 orbits of IR dualities

Shlomo S. Razamat, Gabi Zafrir

We discuss USp(2n) supersymmetric models with eight fundamental fields and a field in the antisymmetric representation. Turning on the most generic superpotentials, coupling pairs…

E-String Theory on Riemann Surfaces

Hee-Cheol Kim, Shlomo S. Razamat, Cumrun Vafa +1

We study compactifications of the 6d E-string theory, the theory of a small E_8 instanton, to four dimensions. In particular we identify N=1 field theories in four dimensions corre…

instantons on type-A ALE spaces and supersymmetric field theories

Noppadol Mekareeya, Kantaro Ohmori, Yuji Tachikawa +1

We consider the 6d superconformal field theory realized on M5-branes probing the end-of-the-world brane on the deformed and resolved singularity.…

Towards Classification of 5d SCFTs: Single Gauge Node

Patrick Jefferson, Hee-Cheol Kim, Cumrun Vafa +1

We propose a number of apparently equivalent criteria necessary for the consistency of a 5d SCFT in its Coulomb phase and use these criteria to classify 5d SCFTs arising from a gau…

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…

4d N=1 from 6d N=(1,0) on a torus with fluxes

Ibrahima Bah, Amihay Hanany, Kazunobu Maruyoshi +3

Compactifying N=(1,0) theories on a torus, with additional fluxes for global symmetries, we obtain N=1 supersymmetric theories in four dimensions. It is shown that for many choices…
