The Gaiotto-Kim Trace Formula and Line Defects
Sungjoon Kim, Spencer Stubbs
We study the insertion of 4d half-BPS line defects into the trace formula proposed by Gaiotto and Kim, which computes the ellipsoid partition function of the 3d topological quantum…

Three-dimensional TQFTs from Argyres--Douglas theories via the 3d/3d correspondence
Cyril Closset, Adam Keyes, Sungjoon Kim
We study the twisted dimensional reduction of 4d Argyres--Douglas theories via the 3d/3d correspondence, focussing on theories realised as the class…
