abstract
The space of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories exhibits an intricate structure of global one-form symmetries and $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ duality orbits. In this paper we study this structure from the point of view of the holographic dual Type IIB string theory. Generalizing work by Witten, we map the different theories based on the gauge algebras $su(N)$, $so(N)$, and $sp(N)$ to a choice of boundary conditions on bulk gauge fields. We show how the one-form symmetries and their anomalies, as well as the duality properties of the gauge theories, arise in the holographic picture. Along the way we prove that the number of disjoint $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ duality orbits for the $su(N)$ theories is given by the number of square divisors of $N$.

The AdS/$\mathsf{C}$-$\mathsf{P}$-${\mathsf T}$ Correspondence
N=4 super Yang-Mills has P and T symmetries that mix with CP and CT under S-duality, and these map to specific worldsheet and geometric symmetries of Type IIB string theory.

Gravity, finite duality cascades and confinement
The authors construct and test a Type IIB supergravity dual of a finite duality cascade on an orientifolded conifold, flowing from a UV conformal manifold to a confining vacuum.

SymTFT, Protected Gaplessness, and Spontaneous Breaking of Non-invertible Symmetries
The authors classify, via Galois theory of cyclotomic polynomials, when finite duality symmetry groups of 4d BF-type SymTFTs admit invariant Lagrangian boundary conditions, thereby determining when symmetry-preserving...

SymTFTs and Non-Invertible Symmetries of 6d (2,0) SCFTs of Type $D$ from M-theory
The 7d SymTFT for 6d (2,0) D_N SCFTs is derived from M-theory on AdS7 × RP4, including the outer-automorphism Z2 sector, and is used to derive non-invertible symmetries and anomaly polynomials.

String theory and the SymTFT of 3d orthosymplectic Chern-Simons theory
The 4d SymTFT of the 3d N=5 orthosymplectic Chern-Simons theory is derived from Type IIA string theory on AdS4 times CP^3/Z2, and the D8/Q8 global symmetry is reproduced by brane dynamics.

Line operator indices of S-fold theories
Line-operator Schur indices for S-fold theories are matched to Wilson-'t Hooft indices in rank-2 N=4 SYM once giant graviton corrections are included, with new fivebrane-junction indices derived for k=3,4,6.

Gravitational index, black hole saddle degeneracy, and one-form symmetry
The |G|-fold degeneracy of supersymmetric AdS5 black hole index saddles is fixed by the flux-quantized BF coupling of the bulk one-form symmetry and persists unmodified in the decompactified black-brane limit.

R-symmetries, anomalies and non-invertible defects from non-BPS branes
The U(1)_R symmetry operator of the Klebanov-Witten theory is realized by a non-BPS KK monopole, whose worldvolume action matches the SymTh operator and anomaly coefficients.
