(24.04.) D-type 6D (2,0) theories: SymTFTs, holography and anomalies

I will discuss the M-theory realization of 6d (2,0) SCFTs of type $D_N$ and the associated 7d SymTFTs, capturing their global finite 0- and 2-form symmetries.
The complementary points of view involve the low-energy supergravity action on AdS7×ℝℙ4from one side, and M2- and M5-branes, giving rise to the topological operators, from another. The non-orientability of the projective space, as well non-integrality and non-commutativity of the fluxes play important roles in the discussion as well as in the derivation of the anomaly polynomial for these theories.
