Quiver tails and brane webs

Abstract A new type of quiver theories, denoted twin quivers, was recently introduced for studying 5d SCFTs engineered by webs of 5-branes ending on 7-branes.Twin quivers provide an alternative perspective on various aspects of such webs, including Hanany-Witten moves and the s-rule.More ambitiously, they can be regarded as a first step towards the construction Lip Balm of combinatorial objects, generalizing brane tilings, encoding the corresponding BPS quivers.This paper continues the investigation of twin quivers, focusing on Serving Platters their non-uniqueness, which stems from the multiplicity of toric phases for a given toric Calabi-Yau 3-fold.

We find that the different twin quivers are necessary for describing what we call quiver tails, which in turn correspond to certain sub-configurations in the webs.More generally, the multiplicity of twin quivers captures the roots of the Higgs branch in the extended Coulomb branch of 5d theories.
