We show that the recently constructed higher-derivative 6D SYM theory involves an internal chiral anomaly breaking gauge invariance. The anomaly is cancelled when adding to the theory an adjoint matter hypermultiplet.

  1. One-loop finiteness in higher-derivative $6D$, ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ super Yang-Mills -- hypermultiplet system

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A novel non-minimal coupling in a higher-derivative 6D N=(1,0) SYM-hypermultiplet system cancels one-loop divergences in the vector multiplet sector, yielding an off-shell finite theory.
