2-group symmetries of little string theories and T-duality, Michele Del Zotto, Uppsala University

Building upon geometric engineering in F-theory (which we will briefly review), we discuss some features of the 2-group structure constants for six-dimensional little string theories, with focus on their interplay with T-dualities and twisted T-dualities. The structure constants of T-dual pairs of LSTs have to match. Twisted T-dualities are subject to a slightly subtler constraint. Various explicit examples will be discussed.
