Defect groups of class S $$ \mathcal{S} $$ theories from the Coulomb branch by Elias Riedel Gårding

“…Specifically, we employ an explicit construction of the BPS quiver for the case of full regular punctures to show that the defect group is (ℤ N )2g , where g is the genus of the associated Riemann surface. This determines a sector of surface operators in the 5d symmetry TFT. …”

Non-linear bi-algebraic curves and surfaces in moduli spaces of Abelian differentials by Deroin, Bertrand, Matheus, Carlos

“…Partly inspired by the case of homogenous spaces carrying bi-algebraic structures (such as torii, Abelian varieties and Shimura varieties), Klingler and Lerer recently showed that any bi-algebraic curve in a stratum of the moduli space of Abelian differentials is linear provided that the so-called condition $(\star )$ is fulfilled.In this note, we construct a non-linear bi-algebraic curve, resp. surface, of Abelian differentials of genus $7$, resp. $10$.…”
