abstract
I show that anomaly cancellation conditions are sufficient to determine the two most important topological numbers relevant for Calabi-Yau compactification to six dimensions. This reflects the fact that K3 is the only non-trivial CY manifold in two complex dimensions. I explicitly construct the Green-Schwarz counterterms and derive sum rules for charges of additional enhanced U(1) factors and compare the results with all possible Abelian orbifold constructions of K3. This includes asymmetric orbifolds as well, showing that it is possible to regain a geometrical interpretation for this class of models. Finally, I discuss some models with a broken $E_7$ gauge group which will be useful for more phenomenological applications.

6d Supergravity Blocks
Any consistent 6d (1,0) supergravity is assembled by gluing supergravity blocks (one H-string LST plus positively intersecting external tensors whose Gram matrix has one positive eigenvalue) and enhancing gauges; non-...

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·...

F-theory models with $U(1)\times \mathbb{Z}_2,\, \mathbb{Z}_4$ and transitions in discrete gauge groups
On bisection loci in a four-section geometry, the F-theory gauge group enlarges from Z2 to U(1) times Z2, and Higgsing can break it down to a discrete Z4 gauge group.

Anomaly cancellation and one-loop finiteness of 6D half-maximal supergravities
Anomaly-free SO(5,21) and SO(4,20) G-duality symmetries are proposed to explain the one-loop finiteness of 6D half-maximal supergravities, by analogy with E_{7(7)} in 4D.
