Non-perturbative topological string theory on compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds

Jie Gu, Amir-Kian Kashani-Poor, Albrecht Klemm +1

We obtain analytic and numerical results for the non-perturbative amplitudes of topological string theory on arbitrary, compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. Our approach is based on the t…

Comment on "Universal Bound on Energy Cost of Bit Reset in Finite Time"

Jie Gu, X. G. Zhang

We present a quantum-mechanical generalization of the work penalty equation (Eq. (6) in Phys. Rev. Lett., 127, 190602 (2021)) with an alternative derivation.

Peacock patterns and resurgence in complex Chern-Simons theory

Stavros Garoufalidis, Jie Gu, Marcos Marino

The partition function of complex Chern-Simons theory on a 3-manifold with torus boundary reduces to a finite dimensional state-integral which is a holomorphic function of a comple…

The resurgent structure of quantum knot invariants

Stavros Garoufalidis, Jie Gu, Marcos Marino

The asymptotic expansion of quantum knot invariants in complex Chern-Simons theory gives rise to factorially divergent formal power series. We conjecture that these series are resu…

Elliptic Blowup Equations for 6d SCFTs. IV: Matters

Jie Gu, Babak Haghighat, Albrecht Klemm +2

Given the recent geometrical classification of 6d SCFTs, a major question is how to compute for this large class their elliptic genera. The latter encode the refined BPS sp…

Elliptic Blowup Equations for 6d SCFTs. III: E-strings, M-strings and Chains

Jie Gu, Babak Haghighat, Albrecht Klemm +2

We establish the elliptic blowup equations for E-strings and M-strings and solve elliptic genera and refined BPS invariants from them. Such elliptic blowup equations can be derived…

Blowup Equations for 6d SCFTs. I

Jie Gu, Babak Haghighat, Kaiwen Sun +1

We propose novel functional equations for the BPS partition functions of 6d (1,0) SCFTs, which can be regarded as an elliptic version of Gottsche-Nakajima-Yoshioka's K-theoretic bl…

Computing the elliptic genus of higher rank E-strings from genus 0 GW invariants

Zhihao Duan, Jie Gu, Amir-Kian Kashani-Poor

We show that the elliptic genus of the higher rank E-strings can be computed based solely on the genus 0 Gromov-Witten invariants of the corresponding elliptic geometry. To set up…

Instantons in the Hofstadter butterfly: difference equation, resurgence and quantum mirror curves

Zhihao Duan, Jie Gu, Yasuyuki Hatsuda +1

We study the Harper-Hofstadter Hamiltonian and its corresponding non-perturbative butterfly spectrum. The problem is algebraically solvable whenever the magnetic flux is a rational…
