SymTrees and multi-sector QFTs
The global symmetries of a $ D $-dimensional QFT can, in many cases, be captured in terms
of a $(D+ 1) $-dimensional symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT). In this work we …

Two 6D origins of 4D SCFTs: Class and 6D (1, 0) on a torus
We consider all 4D N= 2 theories of class S arising from the compactification of exceptional
6D (2, 0) SCFTs on a three-punctured sphere with a simple puncture. We find that each of …
