Abstract
We propose a generalization of S-folds to 4d theories. This construction is motivated by the classification of rank one 4d super-conformal field theories (SCFTs), which we reproduce from D3-branes probing a configuration of S-folds combined with 7-branes. The main advantage of this point of view is that realizes both Coulomb and Higgs branch flows and allows for a straight forward generalization to higher rank theories.
