Higgs branch localization in three dimensions
Francesco Benini, Wolfger Peelaers
We show that the supersymmetric partition function of three-dimensional N=2 R-symmetric Chern-Simons-matter theories on the squashed S^3 and on S^2 x S^1 can be computed with the s…
Infinite Chiral Symmetry in Four Dimensions
Christopher Beem, Madalena Lemos, Pedro Liendo +3
We describe a new correspondence between four-dimensional conformal field theories with extended supersymmetry and two-dimensional chiral algebras. The meromorphic correlators of t…
The Chiral Multiplet on and Supersymmetric Localization
Cyril Closset, Itamar Shamir
We compute the supersymmetric partition function of an chiral multiplet coupled to an external Abelian gauge field on complex manifolds with topolo…
Calabi's diastasis as interface entropy
Constantin P. Bachas, Ilka Brunner, Michael R. Douglas +1
We show that the entropy of certain conformal interfaces between sigma models that belong to the same moduli space, has a natural geometric interpretation in the large vo…
Classical Conformal Blocks and Painleve VI
Alexey Litvinov, Sergei Lukyanov, Nikita Nekrasov +1
We study the classical c\to \infty limit of the Virasoro conformal blocks. We point out that the classical limit of the simplest nontrivial null-vector decoupling equation on a sph…
SuperYang-Mills, Chern-Simons couplings and their all order corrections in IIB superstring theory
Ehsan Hatefi
We explore the closed form of the correlation function of four spin operators (including one closed string Ramond-Ramond (RR) and two open string fermions) and one current in ten d…
