We discuss dyons, charge quantization and electric-magnetic duality for self-interacting, abelian, p-form theories in the spacetime dimensions D=2(p+1) where dyons can be present. The corresponding quantization conditions and duality properties are strikingly different depending on whether p is odd or even. If p is odd one has the familiar eg'-ge'= 2nh, whereas for even p one finds the opposite relative sign, eg'+ge'= 2nh. These conditions are obtained by introducing Dirac strings and taking due account of the multiple connectedness of the configuration space of the strings and the dyons. A two-potential formulation of the theory that treats the electric and magnetic sources on the same footing is also given. Our results hold for arbitrary gauge invariant self-interaction of the fields and are valid irrespective of their duality properties.

  1. Global anomalies in $6D$ gauged supergravities

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    New anomaly-free six-dimensional R-symmetry gauged supergravities are presented, and global anomaly freedom is shown to impose the constraints n_V ≡ 8 mod 12 (U(1)_R) and n_V = 60 (Sp(1)_R).

  2. Machine Learning the 6d Supergravity Landscape

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An autoencoder and two neural classifiers, trained only on anomaly Gram matrices, provide automated clustering, outlier detection, and consistency predictions for millions of 6d supergravity building blocks.

  3. Generalised Symmetries and Manifest Duality I: Flat Spacetime

    hep-th 2025-11 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    A proposed manifestly Lorentz-invariant duality-symmetric action reduces, after removing auxiliary fields, to two independent Maxwell theories rather than a single photon or self-dual sector.
