Gauge Theory, Ramification, And The Geometric Langlands Program
Sergei Gukov, Edward Witten
In the gauge theory approach to the geometric Langlands program, ramification can be described in terms of ``surface operators,'' which are supported on two-dimensional surfaces so…

Electric-Magnetic Duality And The Geometric Langlands Program
Anton Kapustin, Edward Witten
The geometric Langlands program can be described in a natural way by compactifying on a Riemann surface C a twisted version of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. The k…

New Instanton Effects in String Theory
Chris Beasley, Edward Witten
We describe a new class of instanton effects in string compactifications that preserve only N=1 supersymmetry in four dimensions. As is well-known, worldsheet or brane instantons i…
