Hyperbolic Monopoles, (Semi-)Holomorphic Chern-Simons Theories, and Generalized Chiral Potts Models

Seyed Faroogh Moosavian, Masahito Yamazaki, Yehao Zhou

We study the relation between spectral data of magnetic monopoles in hyperbolic space and the curve of the spectral parameter of generalized chiral Potts models (gCPM) through the…

5d-4d Correspondence in Twisted M-theory on a Conifold

Meer Ashwinkumar, Mir Faizal, Arshid Shabir +2

We study twisted M-theory in a general conifold background, and describe it in terms of a 5d non-commutative Chern-Simons-matter theory, which is equivalent to 5d non-commutative C…

R-matrices and Miura operators in 5d Chern-Simons theory

Nafiz Ishtiaque, Saebyeok Jeong, Yehao Zhou

We derive Miura operators for - and -algebras from first principles as the expectation value of the intersection between a topological line defect and a holomorphic surface d…

Affine -algebras and Miura maps from 3d non-Abelian quiver gauge theories

Ioana Coman, Myungbo Shim, Masahito Yamazaki +1

We study Vertex Operator Algebras (VOAs) obtained from the H-twist of 3d linear quiver gauge theories. We find that H-twisted VOAs can be regarded as the ''chiraliz…

Deformed Double Current Algebras, Matrix Extended Algebras, Coproducts, and Intertwiners from the M2-M5 Intersection

Davide Gaiotto, Miroslav Rapčák, Yehao Zhou

We study the algebraic structures which govern the deformation of supersymmetric intersections of M2 and M5 branes. The universal algebras on M2 and M5 branes are deformed double c…

Elliptic Stable Envelopes for Certain Non-Symplectic Varieties and Dynamical -Matrices for Superspin Chains from the Bethe/Gauge Correspondence

Nafiz Ishtiaque, Seyed Faroogh Moosavian, Yehao Zhou

We generalize Aganagic-Okounkov's theory of elliptic stable envelopes, and its physical realization in Dedushenko-Nekrasov's and Bullimore-Zhang's works, to certain varieties witho…

Decomposition of superconformal minimal models and their fractional quantum Hall wavefunctions

Yichen Hu, Sirui Ning, Yehao Zhou

superconformal minimal models are the first series of unitary conformal field theories (CFTs) extending beyond Virasoro algebra. Using coset constructions, we chara…

Line Operators in 4d Chern-Simons Theory and Cherkis Bows

Nafiz Ishtiaque, Yehao Zhou

We show that the phase spaces of a large family of line operators in 4d Chern-Simons theory with gauge group are given by Cherkis bow varieties with crosses. Thes…

Evidence for an algebra of instantons II

Jihwan Oh, Yehao Zhou

Building on our previous work [2109.01110], we will compute a new kind of instanton partition function. By doing so, we complete a set of building blocks of the instanton par…

2d BF Theory Coupled to 1d Quantum Mechanics: The Phase Space and Its Quantization

Seyed Faroogh Moosavian, Yehao Zhou

We study the ring of functions on the (classical and quantized) phase space of 2-dimensional BF theory with the gauge group coupled to a 1-dimensional quantum mecha…

Evidence for an Algebra of Instantons

Michele Del Zotto, Jihwan Oh, Yehao Zhou

In this short note, we present some evidence towards the existence of an algebra of BPS instantons. These are instantonic configurations that govern the partition functions o…

A domain wall in twisted M-theory

Jihwan Oh, Yehao Zhou

We study a four-dimensional domain wall in twisted M-theory. The domain wall is engineered by intersecting D6 branes in the type IIA frame. We identify the classical algebra of ope…

Twisted holography of defect fusions

Jihwan Oh, Yehao Zhou

In the twisted M-theory setting, various types of fusion of M2 and M5 branes induce coproducts between the algebra of operators on M2 branes and the algebra of operators on M5 bran…

Feynman diagrams and -deformed M-theory

Jihwan Oh, Yehao Zhou

We derive the simplest commutation relations of operator algebras associated to M2 branes and an M5 brane in the -deformed M-theory, which is a natural set-up for Twisted hologr…

On the Existence of Heterotic-String and Type-II-Superstring Field Theory Vertices

Seyed Faroogh Moosavian, Yehao Zhou

We consider two problems associated to the space of Riemann surfaces that are closely related to string theory. We first consider the problem of existence of heterotic-string and t…

Note on global symmetry and SYK model

Junyu Liu, Yehao Zhou

The goal of this note is to explore the behavior of effective action in the SYK model with general continuous global symmetries. A global symmetry will decompose the whole Hamilton…

Topological Holography: The Example of The D2-D4 Brane System

Nafiz Ishtiaque, Seyed Faroogh Moosavian, Yehao Zhou

We propose a toy model for holographic duality. The model is constructed by embedding a stack of D2-branes and D4-branes (with one dimensional intersection) in a 6D topolog…
