Higgsing and twisting of 6d D N gauge theories
2020
We propose Type IIB 5-brane configurations that engineer the 6d
$$ \mathcal{N} $$
= (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. We test the brane systems against known Calabi-Yau threefolds for the 6d SCFTs on a circle. In addition we study a new RG flow involving Higgs vevs of scalar operators with Kaluza-Klein momentum along the circle. The new RG flow results in the 5-brane webs for the 6d SCFTs of DN gauge symmetry compactified on a circle with Z2 outer-automorphism twist.
