Classification of Argyres-Douglas theories from M5 branes

We obtain a large class of new four-dimensional Argyres-Douglas theories by classifying irregular punctures for the six-dimensional (2, 0) superconformal theory of ADE type on a sphere. Along the way, we identify the connection between the Hitchin system and threefold singularity descriptions of the...
