Towards exotic matter and discrete non-abelian symmetries in F-theory

Towards exotic matter and discrete non-abelian symmetries in F-theory

We present a prescription in F-theory for realizing matter in "exotic" representations of product gauge groups. For 6D vacua, bifundamental hypermultiplets are engineered by starting at a singular point in moduli space which includes 6D superconformal field theories coupled to gravity. A deformation in Higgs branch moduli space takes us …
