Probing quantum curves and transitions in 5d SQFTs via defects and blowup equations
We investigate codimension-2 defect partition functions and quantum Seiberg-Witten curves in 5d rank-1 supersymmetric QFTs, including non-Lagrangian and Kaluza-Klein theories.

Supersymmetry Breaking Warped Throats and the Weak Gravity Conjecture
We generalize the swampland criterion forbidding stable non-supersymmetric AdS vacua and propose a new swampland conjecture forbidding stable non-supersymmetric "locally AdS" warped throats.

Deconstruction and surface defects in 6d CFTs
We study the two families of AdS3 × S 3 × S 2 × Σ2 solutions to massive Type IIA supergravity with small and large (0, 4) supersymmetries constructed recently in the literature, in connection with the AdS7 × S 2 × I solutions to massive Type IIA, to ...

Dualities of corner configurations and supersymmetric indices
We compute supersymmetric indices which count local operators at certain half-BPS interfaces and quarter-BPS junctions of interfaces in four-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory.

4d crystal melting, toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds and brane brick models
We introduce a class of 4-dimensional crystal melting models that count the BPS bound state of branes on toric Calabi-Yau 4-folds. The crystalline structure is determined by the brane brick model associated to the Calabi-Yau 4-fold under consideration or,

Higgs as a Holographic Pseudo-Goldstone Boson
The AdS/CFT correspondence allows to relate 4D strongly coupled theories to weakly coupled theories in 5D AdS. We use this correspondence to study a scenario in which the Higgs appears as a composite pseudo-Goldstone boson (PGB) of a strongly coupled ...
