Refined BPS numbers on compact Calabi-Yau threefolds from Wilson loops
Min-xin Huang, Sheldon Katz, Albrecht Klemm +1
We relate the counting of refined BPS numbers on compact elliptically fibred Calabi-Yau threefolds to Wilson loop expectations values in the gauge theories that emerge in vario…

Probing Quantum Curves and Transitions in 5d SQFTs via Defects and Blowup Equations
Hee-Cheol Kim, Minsung Kim, Sung-Soo Kim +2
We investigate codimension-2 defect partition functions and quantum Seiberg-Witten curves in 5d rank-1 supersymmetric QFTs, including non-Lagrangian and Kaluza-Klein theories. Usin…

Higher Form and Higher Group Symmetries via Mirror Symmetry
Jiahua Tian, Xin Wang
In this work we uncover a connection that relates the 1-form and the 2-group symmetries of 5D SCFTs derived from geometric engineering methods to monodromies of the corresponding B…
