We extend the modular orbits method of constructing a two-dimensional orbifold conformal field theory to higher genus Riemann surfaces. We find that partition functions on surfaces of arbitrary genus can be constructed by a straightforward…

We show that there is an infinite class of partition functions with world-sheet metric, space-time coordinates and first order systems, that correspond to volume forms on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces and are free of singularities at…

We write down an explicit conjecture for the instanton partition functions in 4d N=2 SU(N) gauge theories in the presence of a certain type of surface operator. These surface operators are classified by partitions of N, and for each…

Tewodros Amdeberhan and Armin Straub initiated the study of enumerating subfamilies of the set of (s,t)-core partitions. While the enumeration of (n+1,n+2)-core partitions into distinct parts is relatively easy (in fact it equals the…

We use a Hodge decomposition and its generalization to non-abelian flat vector bundles to calculate the partition function for abelian and non- abelian BF theories in $n$ dimensions. This enables us to provide a simple proof that the…

We show that the "geometric models of matter" approach proposed by the first author can be used to construct models of anyon quasiparticles with fractional quantum numbers, using 4-dimensional edge-cone orbifold geometries with orbifold…

We use the celebrated circle method of Hardy and Ramanujan to develop convergent formulae for counting a restricted class of partitions that arise from the G\"ollnitz--Gordon identities.

In this note, we revisit some well-known examples of instantons on flat space that were originally discovered in the physics literature. In particular, we explain how the basic instanton on $\mathbb{R}^4$, with its flat hyperkaehler…

We introduce the shell formula-a framework that unifies the description of partition functions whose pole structures are classified by Young diagrams of arbitrary dimension. The formalism yields explicit closed-form expressions and…

Using the techniques developed in arxiv: 1203.3544 we compute the universal part of the equilibrium partition function characteristic of a theory with multiple abelian U(1) anomalies in arbitrary even spacetime dimensions. This contribution…

The modularity of the partition generating function has many important consequences, for example asymptotics and congruences for $p(n)$. In a series of papers the author and Ono \cite{BO1,BO2} connected the rank, a partition statistic…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ let $\Pi[n]$ denote the set of partitions of $n$, i.e., the set of positive integer tuples $(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_k)$ such that $x_1 \geq x_2 \geq \cdots \geq x_k$ and $x_1 + x_2 + \cdots + x_k = n$. Fixing…

The D-instanton partition function is a fascinating quantity because in the presence of N D3-branes, and in a certain decoupling limit, it reduces to the functional integral of N=4 U(N) supersymmetric gauge theory for multi-instanton…

We propose a method to construct a variety of partition identities at once. The main application is an all-moduli generalization of some of Andrews' results in [5]. The novelty is that the method constructs solutions to functional equations…
