6d strings from new chiral gauge theories
read the original abstract
We study the 6d $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ superconformal field theory with smallest non-Higgsable gauge symmetry $SU(3)$. In particular, we propose new 2d gauge theory descriptions of its self-dual strings in the tensor branch. We use our gauge theories to compute the elliptic genera of the self-dual strings, which completely agree with the partial data known from topological strings. We further study the strings of the $(E_6,E_6)$ conformal matter by generalizing our 2d gauge theories. We also show that anomalies of all our gauge theories agree with the self-dual string anomalies computed by inflows from 6d.

Intersection Bounds for BPS Strings in Six-Dimensional Supergravity
Using a lattice Zariski decomposition of the gravitational charge and E8 current-algebra embeddings, the paper bounds previously uncontrolled BPS-string intersections: C_-3·e ≤ 3, C_-2·e ≤ 7, and isolated gauged C_-2·...

String probes, simple currents, and the no global symmetries conjecture
Chiral simple current extensions on the worldsheet reproduce and generalize obstructions to gauging center one-form symmetries in 6d and 8d string compactifications while clarifying BPS particle requirements upon circ...

More on 5d Wilson Loops in Higher-Rank Theories and Blowup Equations
For 5d N=1 pure gauge theories, Wilson-loop blowup equations can be fixed using one-form symmetry and low-instanton data, and one-instanton free energies admit a universal v=sqrt(q1q2) expansion resembling Hilbert series.
