A bstract We analyze topological mass terms of BF type arising in supersymmetric M-theory
compactifications to AdS 5. These describe spontaneously broken higher-form gauge …

We study the spectrum of BPS particles on the Coulomb branch of five-dimensional
superconformal field theories (5d SCFTs) compactified on a circle. By engineering these …

A bstract The trinions TN are a class of 5d\(\mathcal {N}\)= 1 superconformal field theories
(SCFTs) realized as M-theory on ℂ 3/ℤ N× ℤ N. We apply to TN, as well as closely-related …

A bstract We present new families of AdS 5 solutions in M-theory preserving 4d\(\mathcal
{N}\)= 2 supersymmetry. We perform a systematic analysis of holographic observables for …

A bstract The worldvolume theory of M5-branes on an ADE singularity ℝ 5/Γ G can be
Higgsed in various ways, corresponding to the possible nilpotent orbits of G. In the F-theory …

A bstract We systematically analyse 5d superconformal field theories (SCFTs) obtained by
dimensional reduction from 6d\(\mathcal {N}\)=(1, 0) SCFTs. Such theories have a …

We revisit the correspondence between Calabi-Yau (CY) threefold isolated singularities
$\mathbf {X} $ and five-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs), which arise at …

A bstract Compactifications of 6d\(\mathcal {N}\)=(1, 0) SCFTs give rise to new 4d\(\mathcal
{N}\)= 1 SCFTs and shed light on interesting dualities between such theories. In this paper …

A bstract We construct 4d\(\mathcal {N}= 1\) quantum field theories by compactifying the (2,
0) theories on a Riemann surface with genus g and n punctures, where the normal bundle …

A bstract M-theory and string theory predict the existence of many six-dimensional SCFTs. In
particular, type IIA brane constructions involving NS5-, D6-and D8-branes conjecturally give …
