We relate Type IIB superstrings compactified to six dimensions on K3 to an eleven-dimensional theory compactified on $({\bf S}^1)^5/{\bf Z}_2$. Eleven-dimensional five-branes enter the story in an interesting way.

  1. 5d Higgs Branches: Stratifications from Geometry

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    Dynamical complex structure deformations of non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds with non-isolated singularities reproduce the full Higgs branch stratification of 5d SCFTs, matching magnetic quiver predictions.

  2. 5d Trinions and Tetraons

    hep-th 2026-05 accept novelty 7.0

    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.

  3. 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.

  4. Morse-Bott inequalities, Topology Change and Cobordisms to Nothing

    hep-th 2024-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Morse-Bott inequalities yield homology bounds and topology-change counts for generic cobordisms to nothing in string theory compactifications.

  5. On anomaly free 4d $\mathcal{N}$=4 and 6d (2,0) conformal supergravities and UV finiteness of Poincar\'e supergravities

    hep-th 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Anomaly cancellation for specific multiplet numbers in conformal supergravities implies divergences proportional to n_v+2 in 4d PSG and n_T-21 in 6d PSG.
