We engineer a large new set of four-dimensional N=1 superconformal field theories by wrapping M5-branes on complex curves. We present new supersymmetric AdS_5 M-theory backgrounds which describe these fixed points at large N, and then directly construct the dual four-dimensional CFTs for a certain subset of these solutions. Additionally, we provide a direct check of the central charges of these theories by using the M5-brane anomaly polynomial. This is a companion paper which elaborates upon results reported in arXiv:1112:5487.

    New family of maximal 4D gauged supergravities with trombone gauging admits supersymmetric AdS vacua related to M5-branes and provides sufficient conditions for consistent subtruncations from groups not contained in t...

    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.
