Thermal Giant Graviton Expansion
Kasia Budzik, Atul Sharma
We construct giant graviton expansions of the thermal and -graded partition functions of and super Yang-Mills theories at zero 't Hooft coup…
Loop Corrected Supercharges from Holomorphic Anomalies
Kasia Budzik, Justin Kulp
We describe the loop corrections to supercharges in supersymmetric quantum field theories using the holomorphic twist formalism. We begin by reviewing the relation between supercha…
Supergroup Invariants and the Brane/Negative Brane Expansion
Kasia Budzik
We propose a Molien--Weyl-type formula computing generating functions of invariants of supergroups , i.e. polynomials in supertraces, which arise as gauge groups of brane/n…
Tracking the symmetries of -orbifold K3s within the Mathieu groups
Kasia Budzik, Anne Taormina, Mara Ungureanu +2
For -orbifold limits of K3, we provide a counterpart to the extensive studies by Nikulin and others of the geometry and symmetries of classical Kummer surfaces. In par…
Giant Gravitons and non-conformal vacua in twisted holography
Kasia Budzik
Twisted holography relates the two-dimensional chiral algebra subsector of SYM to the B-model topological string theory on the deformed conifold .…
Following Black Hole States
Kasia Budzik, Harish Murali, Pedro Vieira
We study SYM at non-integer number of colours. By varying we can continuously follow states all the way from where integrability reigns to finite …
Semi-Chiral Operators in 4d Gauge Theories
Kasia Budzik, Davide Gaiotto, Justin Kulp +3
We discuss the properties of quarter-BPS local operators in four dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using the formalism of holomorphic twists. We study loop…
Twisted holography without conformal symmetry
Kasia Budzik, Davide Gaiotto
We discuss the notion of translation-invariant vacua for 2d chiral algebras and relate it to the notion of the associated variety. The two-dimensional chiral algebra associated to…
Feynman Diagrams in Four-Dimensional Holomorphic Theories and the Operatope
Kasia Budzik, Davide Gaiotto, Justin Kulp +2
We study a class of universal Feynman integrals which appear in four-dimensional holomorphic theories. We recast the integrals as the Fourier transform of a certain polytope in the…
Giant gravitons in twisted holography
Kasia Budzik, Davide Gaiotto
We study correlation functions of determinant-like operators in the "chiral algebra subsector" of four-dimensional gauge theory with gauge group. We map the the…
Conformal Defects from String Field Theory
Kasia Budzik, Miroslav Rapcak, Jairo M. Rojas
Unlike conformal boundary conditions, conformal defects of Virasoro minimal models lack classification. Alternatively to the defect perturbation theory and the truncated conformal…
