Abstract

We explore 6-dimensional compactifications of F-theory exhibiting (2,0) superconformal theories coupled to gravity that include discretely charged superconformal matter. Those theories are constructed as smooth non-simply connected Calabi-Yau quotients with a†singular base whereas additional discrete charged singlets get introduced by the resolution of the base.
