Using wall-crossing formulae and the theory of mock modular forms we derive a holomorphic anomaly equation for the modified elliptic genus of two M5-branes wrapping a rigid divisor inside a Calabi-Yau manifold. The anomaly originates from restoring modularity of an indefinite theta-function capturing the wall-crossing of BPS invariants associated to D4-D2-D0 brane systems. We show the compatibility of this equation with anomaly equations previously observed in the context of N=4 topological Yang-Mills theory on P^2 and E-strings obtained from wrapping M5-branes on a del Pezzo surface. The non-holomorphic part is related to the contribution originating from bound-states of singly wrapped M5-branes on the divisor. We show in examples that the information provided by the anomaly is enough to compute the BPS degeneracies for certain charges. We further speculate on a natural extension of the anomaly to higher D4-brane charge.

We derive a holomorphic anomaly equation for the Vafa-Witten partition function for twisted four-dimensional $mathcal{N} =4$ super Yang-Mills theory on $mathbb{CP}^{2}$ for the gauge group $SO(3)$ from the path integral of the effective theory on the
Coulomb branch. The holomorphic kernel of this equation, which receives contributions only from the instantons, is not modular but `mock modular. The partition function has correct modular properties expected from $S$-duality only after including the anomalous nonholomorphic boundary contributions from anti-instantons. Using M-theory duality, we relate this phenomenon to the holomorphic anomaly of the elliptic genus of a two-dimensional noncompact sigma model and compute it independently in two dimensions. The anomaly both in four and in two dimensions can be traced to a topological term in the effective action of six-dimensional (2,0) theory on the tensor branch. We consider generalizations to other manifolds and other gauge groups to show that mock modularity is generic and essential for exhibiting duality when the relevant field space is noncompact.
We study dimensional reduction of M5 branes on a circle bundle when the supersymmetry parameter is not constant along the circle. When the gauge group is Abelian and the fields appear quadratically in the Lagrangian, we can always obtain a supersymme
tric five-dimensional theory by keeping fermionic nonzero modes that match with the corresponding nonzero modes of the supersymmetry parameter, and by keeping the zero modes for the bosonic fields as usual. But a supersymmetric non-Abelian generalization can be found only under special circumstances. One instance where we find a non-Abelian supersymmetric generalization is when we perform dimensional reduction along a null direction.
In this paper, we investigate the properties of a membrane in the M5-brane background. Through solving the classical equations of motion of the membrane, we can understand the classical dynamics of the membrane in this background.
The theory of Topological Modular Forms suggests the existence of deformation invariants for two-dimensional supersymmetric field theories that are more refined than the standard elliptic genus. In this note we give a physical definition of some of t
hese invariants. The theory of mock modular forms makes a surprise appearance, shedding light on the integrality properties of some well-known examples.
We construct supersymmetric $AdS_5times Sigma$ solutions of $D=7$ gauged supergravity, where $Sigma$ is a two-dimensional orbifold known as a spindle. These uplift on $S^4$ to solutions of $D=11$ supergravity which have orbifold singularites. We argu
e that the solutions are dual to $d=4$, $mathcal{N}=1$ SCFTs that arise from $N$ M5-branes wrapped on a spindle, embedded as a holomorphic curve inside a Calabi-Yau three-fold. In contrast to the usual topological twist solutions, the superconformal R-symmetry mixes with the isometry of the spindle in the IR, and we verify this via a field theory calculation, as well as reproducing the gravity formula for the central charge.
