Abstract

The instanton partition functions of N=1\mathcal{N}=1 5d super Yang-Mills are built using elements of the representation theory of quantum W1+\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty} algebra: Gaiotto state, intertwiner, vertex operator. This algebra is also known under the names of Ding-Iohara-Miki and quantum toroidal gl^(1)\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(1) algebra. Exploiting the explicit action of the algebra on the partition function, we prove the regularity of the 5d qq-characters. These characters provide a solution to the Schwinger-Dyson equations, and they can also be interpreted as a quantum version of the Seiberg-Witten curve.
