Higgsing and twisting of 6d D N gauge theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We propose Type IIB 5-brane configurations that engineer the 6d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (1, 0) SCFTs with SO(N) gauge symmetry coupled to a single tensor multiplet on a circle, by considering RG flows on Higgs branches of D-type conformal matter theories ...
