5d superconformal indices at large N and holography

Understand

We propose a general formula for the perturbative large N superconformal index of 5d quiver fixed point theories that have an AdS(6)xS(4)/Z(n) supergravity dual.

• This index is obtained from the parent theory by projecting to orbifold-invariant states and adding the twisted sector contributions.
• Our result agrees with expectations from the dual supergravity description.
• We test our formula against the direct computation of the index for Z(2) and Z(3) and find complete agreement.
