Brane webs in the presence of an O5⁻-plane and 4d class S theories of type D

Abstract

Abstract: In this article we conjecture a relationship between 5d SCFT’s, that can be engineered by 5-brane webs in the presence of an O5⁻-plane, and 4d class S theories of type D. The specific relation is that compactification on a circle of the former leads to the latter. We present evidence for this conjecture. One piece of evidence, which is also an interesting application of this, is that it suggests identifications between different class S theories. This can in turn be tested by comparing their central charges.
