Towards quantum elliptic cohomology from GLSMs

Z. Cao, E. Sharpe, H. Zhang

This paper briefly outlines a proposal for a GLSM Coulomb-branch interpretation of the quantum elliptic cohomology rings currently being developed in mathematics by Bouaziz-Huq-Kur…

Schubert line defects in 3d GLSMs, part I: Complete flag manifolds and quantum Grothendieck polynomials

Cyril Closset, Wei Gu, Osama Khlaif +3

We construct new half-BPS line defects in 3d supersymmetric quiver gauge theories whose Higgs branches are complete flag manifolds . Upon circle co…

Schubert line defects in 3d GLSMs, part II: Partial flag manifolds and parabolic quantum polynomials

Cyril Closset, Wei Gu, Osama Khlaif +3

We construct Schubert line defects in the 3d supersymmetric gauged linear sigma model (GLSM) with target space a partial flag manifold $X={\rm Fl}({\boldsymbol{k}};…

Quantum K-theory levels in physics and math

I. Huq-Kuruvilla, L. Mihalcea, E. Sharpe +1

The purpose of this paper is to describe a dictionary between Chern-Simons levels in three-dimensional gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) and twistings of quantum K-theory in mathe…

Schubert defects in Lagrangian Grassmannians

W. Gu, L. Mihalcea, E. Sharpe +3

In this paper, we propose a construction of GLSM defects corresponding to Schubert cycles in Lagrangian Grassmannians, following recent work of Closset-Khlaif on Schubert cycles in…

Decomposition squared

Eric Sharpe, Hao Zhang

In this paper, we test and extend a proposal of Gu, Pei, and Zhang for an application of decomposition to three-dimensional theories with one-form symmetries and to quantum K theor…

Quantum cohomology from mixed Higgs-Coulomb branches

W. Gu, I. V. Melnikov, E. Sharpe

We generalize Coulomb-branch-based gauged linear sigma model (GLSM)-based computations of quantum cohomology rings of Fano spaces. Typically such computations have focused on GLSMs…

Quantum K theory rings of partial flag manifolds

W. Gu, L. Mihalcea, E. Sharpe +3

In this paper we use three-dimensional gauged linear sigma models to make physical predictions for Whitney-type presentations of equivariant quantum K theory rings of partial flag…

A proposal for nonabelian (0,2) mirrors

W. Gu, J. Guo, E. Sharpe

In this paper we give a proposal for mirrors to (0,2) supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs), for those (0,2) GLSMs which are deformations of (2,2) GLSMs. Specifically,…
