Revisiting the classifications of 6d SCFTs and LSTs
read the original abstract
Gauge-theoretic anomaly cancellation predicts the existence of many 6d SCFTs and little string theories (LSTs) that have not been given a string theory construction so far. In this paper, we provide an explicit construction of all such "missing" 6d SCFTs and LSTs by using the frozen phase of F-theory. We conjecture that the full set of 6d SCFTs and LSTs is obtained by combining the set of theories constructed in this paper with the set of theories that have been constructed in earlier literature using the unfrozen phase of F-theory. Along the way, we demonstrate that there exist SCFTs that do not descend from LSTs via an RG flow.

6d Supergravity Blocks
Any consistent 6d (1,0) supergravity is assembled by gluing supergravity blocks (one H-string LST plus positively intersecting external tensors whose Gram matrix has one positive eigenvalue) and enhancing gauges; non-...

5d Trinions and Tetraons
The authors construct 5d SCFT trinions and tetraons with D flavor symmetry via M-theory, producing non-linear quivers with instanton symmetry enhancement and ruling out E-type cases.

Bounds on Discrete Gauge Symmetries in Supergravity
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.
