Abstract

In the context of the atomic classification of 5d SCFTs building blocks with non-simply laced global symmetries are lacking. In this work we fill this gap by introducing a new class of 5d UV fixed points (the 5d SCFT "fixtures"). Physically, 5d SCFTs fixtures are the result of a Higgs branch RG flow, realized geometrically by M-theory on singular threefolds which we identify explicitly. In particular, this enables the construction of 5d conformal matter SCFTs with non-simply laced flavor symmetry. Along the way, we discuss their circle reduction in relation to 4d theories of class-S type.
