abstract

There exist 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs in class $\mathcal{S}$ which have different constructions as punctured Riemann surfaces, but which nevertheless appear to describe the same physics. Some of these class $\mathcal{S}$ theories have an alternative construction as torus-compactifications of 6d $(1,0)$ SCFTs. We demonstrate that the 6d SCFTs are isomorphic. Each 6d SCFT in question can be obtained from a parent 6d SCFT by Higgs branch renormalization group flow, and the parent theory possesses a discrete symmetry under which the relevant Higgs branch flows are exchanged. The existence of this discrete symmetry, which may be embedded in an enhanced continuous symmetry, proves that the original pair of class $\mathcal{S}$ theories are, in fact, isomorphic.
