From quivers to geometry: 5D conformal matter

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: We show that all 5D balanced (ADE-shaped) special unitary quivers with no Chern-Simons level admit a UV completion which is a 5D conformal matter superconformal field theory (SCFT). We give explicit local Calabi-Yau threefolds realizing each of these models in M-theory. This unified description enables a systematic exploration of their physical properties, such as their Higgs branch, as well as connections to class- S constructions and the affine Grassmannian.
