SIMIS+Shanghaitech Joint Seminar on Theoretical Physics: A closed formula for surface defects in 6D (2,0) theories

Speaker: Yang Zhou (Fudan University, Shanghai)

Abstract: We conjecture a closed formula for surface defect contribution to supersymmetric Renyi entropy, valid for all N, in 6d (2,0) theories and provide various evidences and also consistent checks for the formula. This talk is based on 2310.02096 with Ma-Ke Yuan and also work in progress.
