Abstract: We continue our program of mapping data of 4D superconformal field theories (SCFTs) onto observables of 2D chiral rational conformal field theories (RCFTs) by revisiting an infinite set of strongly coupled Argyres-Douglas (AD) SCFTs and their associated logarithmic 2D chiral algebras. First, we turn on discrete flavor fugacities (for continuous flavor symmetries) in a known correspondence between certain unrefined characters of these logarithmic theories and unrefined characters of a set of unitary 2D chiral RCFTs. Motivated by this discussion, we then study 4D Higgs branch renormalization group flows (i.e., flows activated by vevs for which only is spontaneously broken) emanating from our AD theories from the point of view of the unitary 2D theories and find some surprises. In particular, we argue that certain universal pieces of the topological data underlying the 2D chiral algebra representations associated with the 4D infrared (IR) theory can be computed, via Galois conjugation, in the topological quantum field theory (TQFT) underlying the unitary ultraviolet (UV) chiral RCFT. The mapping of this topological data from UV to IR agrees with the fact that, in our theories, the moduli spaces we study consist of free hypermultiplets at generic points if and only if the UV TQFT is a theory of abelian anyons.
