Localizing Wrapped M5-branes and Gravitational Blocks

High Energy Physics - Theory 2023-11-10 v2

Abstract

We consider d=2d=2, N=(0,2)\mathcal{N}=(0,2) SCFTs that can arise from M5-branes wrapping four-dimensional, complex, toric manifolds and orbifolds. We use equivariant localization to compute the off-shell central charge of the dual supergravity solutions, obtaining a result which can be written as a sum of gravitational blocks and precisely agrees with a field theory computation using anomaly polynomials and cc-extremization.
