| الملخص: | <p>5d ray index is the 5d superconformal index in the presence of a ray-like defect. An elementary ray defect flows to a fundamental Wilson ray in IR gauge theory. In 5d <span tabindex="0" data-mathml="<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"><mi class="MJX-tex-caligraphic" mathvariant="script">N</mi></mrow></math>">N</span> = 1 superconformal field theory(SCFT) with <em>E</em><sub><em>n</em></sub> global symmetry, we compute the ray index associated with an adjoint Wilson ray. We show that the operators that appear in the index are non-trivially charged under the center of the global symmetry <em>E</em><sub><em>n</em></sub>. The charge under the center being twice compared with the center charge carried by the elementary ray operator indicates a non-trivial OPE between the ray-like defects in the UV SCFT.</p> |
