N=2 Quantum Field Theories and Their BPS Quivers
Murad Alim, Sergio Cecotti, Clay Cordova +3
We explore the relationship between four-dimensional N=2 quantum field theories and their associated BPS quivers. For a wide class of theories including super-Yang-Mills theories,…
Braids, Walls, and Mirrors
Sergio Cecotti, Clay Cordova, Cumrun Vafa
We construct 3d, N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories by considering a one-parameter `R-flow' of 4d, N=2 theories, where the central charges vary while preserving their phase order. E…
Quantum Geometry of Refined Topological Strings
Mina Aganagic, Miranda C. N. Cheng, Robbert Dijkgraaf +2
We consider branes in refined topological strings. We argue that their wave-functions satisfy a Schrödinger equation depending on multiple times and prove this in the case where th…
Classification of complete N=2 supersymmetric theories in 4 dimensions
Sergio Cecotti, Cumrun Vafa
We define the notion of a complete N=2 supersymmetric theory in 4 dimensions as a UV complete theory for which all the BPS central charges can be arbitrarily varied as we vary its…
The Conformal Sector of F-theory GUTs
Jonathan J. Heckman, Cumrun Vafa, Brian Wecht
D3-brane probes of exceptional Yukawa points in F-theory GUTs are natural hidden sectors for particle phenomenology. We find that coupling the probe to the MSSM yields a new class…
