title: Central charges of Liouville and Toda theories from M5-branes.
abstract: We show that the central charge of the Liouville and Toda theories of type A, D, and E can be reproduced by equivariantly integrating the anomaly eight-form of the corresponding six-dimensional N=(0,2) theories, which describe the low-energy dynamics of M5-branes.
