We provide an overview of the string landscape and the Swampland program. Our review of
the string landscape covers the worldsheet and spacetime perspectives, including vacua …

A bstract In [1, 2] we proposed an approach based on graphs to characterize 5d
superconformal field theories (SCFTs), which arise as compactifications of 6d\(\mathcal …

The center-flavor symmetry of a gauge theory specifies the global form of consistent gauge
and flavor bundle background field configurations. For 6D gauge theories which arise from a …

A bstract We study 6d superconformal field theories (SCFTs) compactified on a circle with
arbitrary twists. The theories obtained after compactification, often referred to as 5d Kaluza …

F-theory is perhaps the most general currently available approach to study non-perturbative
string compactifications in their geometric, large radius regime. It opens up a wide and ever …

Following a recent proposal, we delineate a general procedure to classify 5 d SCFTs via
compactifications of 6 d SCFTs on a circle (possibly with a twist by a discrete global …

According to a conjecture, all 5 d SCFTs should be obtainable by rank-preserving RG flows
of 6 d SCFTs compactified on a circle possibly twisted by a background for the discrete …

A bstract We classify 5d\(\mathcal {N}\)= 1 gauge theories carrying a simple gauge group
that can arise by mass-deforming 5d SCFTs and 6d SCFTs (compactified on a circle …

The Higgs branch of 4D N= 2 superconformal field theories can be analyzed via the Hilbert
series of the Higgs branch or, in special cases, by computing the Hall-Littlewood index. For …

In theories with extended supersymmetry the protected observables of UV superconformal
fixed points are found in a number of contexts to be encoded in the BPS solitons along an IR …
