3d defects in 5d: RG flows and defect F-maximization
Abstract We use a combination of AdS/CFT and supersymmetric localization to study codimension-2 defects in 5d SCFTs and their gauge theory deformations. The 5d SCFTs are engineered by (p, q) 5-brane webs, with defects realized by D3-branes ending on the 5-brane webs. We obtain the defect free energi...
