Wall-crossing of Instantons on the Blow-up

Baptiste Filoche, Stefan Hohenegger, Taro Kimura

We study the instanton counting in four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories on the blow-up of : we start by formulating the instanton moduli spa…

The 4-fold Pandharipande--Thomas vertex and Jeffrey--Kirwan residue

Taro Kimura, Go Noshita

We present a contour integral formalism for computing the K-theoretic equivariant Pandharipande--Thomas (PT) 4-vertex. Within the Jeffrey--Kirwan (JK) residue framework, we show th…

Gauge origami and quiver W-algebras IV: Pandharipande--Thomas -characters

Taro Kimura, Go Noshita

We develop a contour integral formalism for computing the K-theoretic equivariant 3-vertex. Within the Jeffrey--Kirwan (JK) residue framework, we show that, by an appropriate choic…

Surface Defects in -type Little String Theories

Baptiste Filoche, Stefan Hohenegger, Taro Kimura

-type Little String Theories (LSTs) are engineered from parallel M5-branes on a circle , probing a transverse background. Below t…

Gauge origami and quiver W-algebras II: Vertex function and beyond quantum -Langlands correspondence

Taro Kimura, Go Noshita

We continue the study of generalized gauge theory called gauge origami, based on the quantum algebraic approach initiated in [arXiv:2310.08545]. In this article, we in particular e…

Gauge origami and quiver W-algebras III: Donaldson--Thomas -characters

Taro Kimura, Go Noshita

We further develop the BPS/CFT correspondence between quiver W-algebras/-characters and partition functions of gauge origami. We introduce -characters associated with multi…
