abstract
We study 1+1-dimensional theories of vector and hypermultiplets with (4,4) supersymmetry. Despite strong infrared fluctuations, these theories flow in general to distinct conformal field theories on the Coulomb and Higgs branches. In some cases there may be a quantum Higgs theory even when there is no classical Higgs branch. The Higgs branches of certain such theories provide a framework for a matrix model of Type IIA fivebranes and the associated exotic six-dimensional string theories. Proposals concerning the interactions of these string theories are evaluated.

The 1-loop M2-brane correction to the AdS2 imes S1 Wilson-loop partition function in AdS3 imes S3 imes T5 is exactly κ/√(2π) with no subleading 1/κ series.
Proposes conjectural central charge formulas for 2d N=(0,4) theories from class S reductions and verifies agreement via Hilbert series on special and twisted Higgs branches for SU(2) cases.
Upper bounds are placed on the order of enhanced discrete gauge symmetries in supersymmetric supergravity theories with 8 or more supercharges, with some bounds saturated by string theory examples.
