Abstract:
We will discuss some expectations
regarding properties of N=1 SCFTs in
four dimensions obtained by
compactifying (1,0) theories in six
dimensions on a Riemann surface. We
will illustrate in detail how these
properties come about in the special
case of compactifications of two M5
branes probing Z_2 singularity. In
particular, we will obtain a large class
of strongly coupled N=1 theories in
four dimensions obtained in such
compactifications. We will derive some
of their robust properties, such as
anomalies and supersymmetric
indices.
