Flavor symmetry of \(5d\) SCFTs. Part I. General setup. (English) Zbl 1472.81216
Summary: A large class of \(5d\) superconformal field theories (SCFTs) can be constructed by integrating out BPS particles from \(6d\) SCFTs compactified on a circle. We describe a general method for extracting the flavor symmetry of any \(5d\) SCFT lying in this class. For this purpose, we utilize the geometric engineering of \(5d \) \(\mathcal{N} = 1\) theories in M-theory, where the flavor symmetry is encoded in a collection of non-compact surfaces.
