A large family of 4d N=2 SCFT's was introduced in arXiv:1210.2886. Its elements $D_p(G)$ are labelled by a positive integer p\in N and a simply-laced Lie group G; their flavor symmetry is at least G. In the present paper we study their…
We study a rich set of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with both central charges identical: $a = c$. We construct them via the diagonal $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauging of the flavor symmetry $G$ of a…
We discover a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric field theory that is dual to the $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $SU(2n+1)$ for each $n$. The dual theory is constructed through the diagonal gauging of…
We study a set of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) $\widehat{\Gamma}(G)$ labeled by a pair of simply-laced Lie groups $\Gamma$ and $G$. They are constructed out of gauging a number of $\mathcal{D}_p(G)$…
We demonstrate the presence of non-invertible symmetries in an infinite family of superconformal Argyres-Douglas theories. This class of theories arises from diagonal gauging of the flavor symmetry of a collection of multiple copies of…
In this paper we present a beautifully consistent web of evidence for the existence of interacting 4d rank-1 $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs obtained from gauging discrete subgroups of global symmetries of other existing 4d rank-1 $\mathcal{N}=2$…
A solution to the infinite coupling problem for N=2 conformal supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions is presented. The infinitely-coupled theories are argued to be interacting superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with weakly…
We generalize S-duality to N=2 superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with Coulomb branch operators of non-integer scaling dimension. As simple examples, we find minimal generalizations of the S-dualities discovered in SU(2) gauge theory…
We construct a family of examples of pairs of 4d N=2 SCFTs whose graded Coulomb branch dimensions, Weyl-anomaly coefficients and flavour symmetry algebras and levels coincide, but which are nonetheless distinct SCFTs. The difference…
We study a rich set of four-dimensional superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with both central charges identical: $a = c$. These are constructed via the diagonal $\mathcal{N}=2$ or $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauging of the flavor symmetry $G$ of a…
We list 4d interacting $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFT with minimal flavor central charge from the theory space constructed using 6d $(2,0)$ theory. For $ADE$ and $C_N$ flavor groups, our theory saturates the bound found using bootstrap method, but…
We provide a systematic method to deduce the global form of flavor symmetry groups in 4d N=2 theories obtained by compactifying 6d N=(2,0) superconformal field theories (SCFTs) on a Riemann surface carrying regular punctures and possibly…
We continue to investigate the $\mathcal{N}=1$ deformations of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) labeled by a nilpotent element of the flavor symmetry. This triggers a renormalization group (RG) flow to…
Maximally supersymmetric gauge theories have experienced renewed interest due to the AdS/CFT correspondence and its conjectured S-duality. These gauge theories possess a large amount of symmetry and have quasi-integrable properties. We…
We show that a proposed duality [arXiv:0711.0054] between infinitely coupled gauge theories and superconformal field theories (SCFTs) with weakly gauged flavor groups predicts the existence of new rank 1 SCFTs. These superconformal fixed…
A class of 4d $\mathcal{N}=3$ SCFTs can be obtained from gauging a discrete subgroup of the global symmetry group of $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory. This discrete subgroup contains elements of both the $SU(4)$ R-symmetry group and…
We construct the supergravity solution for fully localized D2/D6 intersection. The near horizon limit of this solution is the supergravity dual of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions with flavor. We use this solution to…
We introduce a class of Higgs-branch RG flows in theories of class-S, which flow between $d=4$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs of the same ADE type. We discuss two applications of this class of RG flows: 1) determining the current-algebra levels in…
Yang-Mills theory with flavor quarks in the dS${}_4$ is studied through the dual supergravity in the AdS${}_5\times S^5$ background with non-trivial dilaton and axion. The flavor quarks are introduced by embedding a probe D7 brane. We find…
We study (1,0) and (2,0) 6D superconformal field theories (SCFTs) that can be constructed in F-theory. Quite surprisingly, all of them involve an orbifold singularity C^2 / G with G a discrete subgroup of U(2). When G is a subgroup of…
