Liberating confinement from Lagrangians: 1-form symmetries and lines in 4d N=1 from 6d N=(2,0)
We study confinement in 4d $\mathcal{N}$=1 theories obtained by deforming 4d $\mathcal{N}$=2 theories of Class S. We argue that confinement in a vacuum of the $\mathcal{N}$=1 theory is encoded in the 1-cycles of the associated $\mathcal{N}$=1 curve. This curve is the spectral cover associated to a g...
