Quiver elliptic W-algebras
Taro Kimura, Vasily Pestun
We define elliptic generalization of W-algebras associated with arbitrary quiver using the formalism of arXiv:1512.08533 applied to six-dimensional quiver gauge theory compactified…
Review of localization in geometry
Vasily Pestun
Review of localization in geometry: equivariant cohomology, characteristic classes, Atiyah-Bott formula, Atiyah-Singer equivariant index formula, Mathai-Quillen formalism
Introduction to localization in quantum field theory
Vasily Pestun, Maxim Zabzine
This is the introductory chapter to the volume. We review the main idea of the localization technique and its brief history both in geometry and in QFT. We discuss localization in…
Localization techniques in quantum field theories
Vasily Pestun, Maxim Zabzine, Francesco Benini +17
This is the foreword to the special volume on localization techniques in quantum field theory. We summarize the individual chapters and their relation.
