We study the geometry of 4d N=1 SCFT's arising from compactification of 6d (1,0) SCFT's on a Riemann surface. We show that the conformal manifold of the resulting theory is characterized, in addition to moduli of complex structure of the Riemann surface, by the choice of a connection for a vector bundle on the surface arising from flavor symmetries in 6d. We exemplify this by considering the case of 4d N=1 SCFT's arising from M5 branes probing Z_k singularity compactified on a Riemann surface. In particular, we study in detail the four dimensional theories arising in the case of two M5 branes on Z_2 singularity. We compute the conformal anomalies and indices of such theories in 4d and find that they are consistent with expectations based on anomaly and the moduli structure derived from the 6 dimensional perspective.

  1. From Quivers to Geometry: 5d Conformal Matter

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    All 5d balanced (ADE-shaped) SU quivers with no Chern-Simons level have UV completions as 5d conformal matter SCFTs realized by explicit local Calabi-Yau threefolds in M-theory.

  2. On non-relativistic integrable models and 4d SCFTs

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Generalized Schur indices of N=2 class S theories are expressed using eigenfunctions of non-relativistic elliptic Calogero-Moser models, with extensions claimed for N=1 SCFTs via limits of models like Inozemtsev.
