We consider compactifications of very Higgsable 6d $N =(1,0)$ SCFTs on $T^2$ with non-trivial Stiefel-Whitney classes (or equivalently 't Hooft magnetic fluxes) introduced for their flavor symmetry groups. These systems can also be studied…

In this paper, we systematically investigate the nilpotentizer and nilpotent graph for a Lie superalgebra over the field of characteristic not equal to 2. First, we establish some fundamental properties of the nilpotentizer. Next, we show…

The three dimensional exact R symmetry of N=2 SCFTs extremizes the partition function localized on a three sphere. Here we verify this statement at weak coupling. We give a detailed analysis for two classes of models. The first one is an…

Making use of the exact solutions of the $N=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories we construct new classes of superconformal field theories (SCFTs) by fine-tuning the moduli parameters and bringing the theories to critical points. In the case of…

Renormalization group flows are studied between 5d SCFTs engineered by $(p,q)$ 5-brane webs with large numbers of external 5-branes. A general expression for the free energy on $S^5$ in terms of single-valued trilogarithm functions is…

A new class of exact supersymmetric solutions is derived within minimal $d = 6$ $F(4)$ gauged supergravity. These flows are all characterized by a non-trivial radial profile for the 2-form gauge potential included into the supergravity…

We show that the non-gravitational sectors of certain 6d and 5d supergravity theories can be decomposed into superconformal field theories (SCFTs) which are coupled together by pairwise identifying and gauging mutual global symmetries. In…

The one-dimensional (1D) fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) generalizes the Fourier transform, offering significant advantages in the time-frequency analysis of non-stationary signals. While various 2D extensions exist, such as the 2D…

We provide a string theory embedding for N = 1 superconformal field theories defined by bipartite graphs inscribed on a disk. We realize these theories by exploiting the close connection with related N = 2 generalized (A_(k-1), A_(n-1))…

A finite group $G$ is said to have the nilpotent decomposition property (ND) if for every nilpotent element $\alpha$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ one has that $\alpha e$ also belong to $\mathbb{Z}[G]$, for every primitive…

Considering marginally relevant and relevant deformations of the weakly coupled $(3+1)$-dimensional large $N$ conformal gauge theories introduced in arXiv:2011.13981, we study the patterns of phase transitions in these systems that lead to…

Using six-dimensional Euclidean $F(4)$ gauged supergravity we construct a holographic renormalization group flow for a CFT on $S^5$. Numerical solutions to the BPS equations are obtained and the free energy of the theory on $S^5$ is…

We describe in detail how the spectrum of a single anti-D3-brane in four-dimensional orientifolded IIB string models reproduces precisely the field content of a nilpotent chiral superfield with the only physical component corresponding to…

We consider four dimensional $U(N)$ $\mathcal N=4$ SYM theory interacting with a 3d $\mathcal N=4$ theory living on a codimension-one interface and holographically dual to the D3-D5 system without flux. Localization captures several…

We construct a continuous one parameter family of $AdS_4\times S^1\times S^5$ S-fold solutions of type IIB string theory which have nontrivial $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy in the $S^1$ direction. The solutions span a subset of a conformal…

We study marginal deformations of ${\cal N}=2$, $d=4$ long linear quiver CFTs using the holographic description. We find a two-parameter family of AdS$_5$ solutions that generically break all of supersymmetry, but preserve ${\cal N}=1$ for…

We propose new off-shell models for spontaneously broken local ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetry, in which the supergravity multiplet couples to nilpotent Goldstino superfields that contain either a gauge one-form or a gauge two-form in addition…

Let $G$ be $2$-generated group. The generating graph of $\Gamma(G)$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if $G=\langle g,h\rangle$. This graph encodes the combinatorial…
