Proving the 6d a-theorem with the double affine Grassmannian

M Fazzi, S Giri, P Levy - arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.17178, 2023 - arxiv.org
This paper contains two results of independent interest, the first being more mathematical in
nature whereas the second more physical. We first show that the hierarchy of Higgs branch …
