   Format: MarkdownItexI have been adding to [[AdS/CFT]] in the section _[AdS7 / CFT6](http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/AdS-CFT#AdS7CFT6)_ a (of course incomplete) list of available evidence for what is going on. This is triggered by the fact that we have [a proposal](http://ncatlab.org/schreiber/show/7d+Chern-Simons+theory+and+the+5-brane) for a precise formalization of the effective 7d theory.

   Format: MarkdownItexMabe I asked already, but do the compactifications of CFT6 which lead to S-duality/geometric Langlands manifest themselves in some paired constructions for the dual AdS7?
