"Remarks about BPS Strings of 6D (1,0) SCFTs"

Abstract: We discuss recent progresses in understanding the BPS strings of six-dimensional SCFTs. Along the way we review some interesting interconnections among our results, twisted compactifications of 4d N=2 theories, topological strings, and five-dimensional Nekrasov partition functions.
