论文摘要
我们研究了6D电子弦理论，具有圆上的缺陷。我们的基本策略是将几何过渡应用于超对称规格理论。首先，我们计算出具有10种口味的5D SU（3）$ _ 0 $量规理论的分区函数，这是基于两个不同的5个桥式网络图的5D SP（2）量规理论，并具有10个口味，并检查两个分区功能彼此一致。然后，通过利用几何过渡，我们找到了在$ \ mathbb {r}^4 \ times t^2 $上的e-string的表面缺陷分区函数。我们还讨论了我们的结果与椭圆属一致。基于结果，我们展示了全局对称性如何因缺陷而破坏，并讨论破坏模式取决于我们在哪里/如何插入缺陷。
We study 6d E-string theory with defects on a circle. Our basic strategy is to apply the geometric transition to the supersymmetric gauge theories. First, we calculate the partition functions of the 5d SU(3)$_0$ gauge theory with 10 flavors, which is UV-dual to the 5d Sp(2) gauge theory with 10 flavors, based on two different 5-brane web diagrams, and check that two partition functions agree with each other. Then, by utilizing the geometric transition, we find the surface defect partition function for E-string on $\mathbb{R}^4\times T^2$. We also discuss that our result is consistent with the elliptic genus. Based on the result, we show how the global symmetry is broken by the defects, and discuss that the breaking pattern depends on where/how we insert the defects.
