We give a physical explanation of the Kontsevich-Soibelman wall-crossing formula for the BPS spectrum in Seiberg-Witten theories. In the process we give an exact description of the BPS instanton corrections to the hyperkahler metric of the…

We consider Boltzmann random triangulations coupled to the Ising model on their faces, under Dobrushin boundary conditions and at the critical point of the model. The first part of this paper computes explicitly the partition function of…

Previous work has given proof and evidence that BPS states in local Calabi-Yau 3-folds can be described and counted by exponential networks on the punctured plane, with the help of a suitable non-abelianization map to the mirror curve. This…

For a 3d gauged linear sigma model parametrized by a Kahler manifold X, the 3d BPS index defines a q-series that can be analytically continued in the Kahler modulus by standard methods. It is argued that an SL(2,Z)-transform of the Birkhoff…

We explore the physics of two-body decay of BPS states using semiclassical analysis to construct explicit solutions that illustrate the main features of wall crossing, for both ordinary and framed BPS states. In particular we recover the…

We calculate the partition function for "composite particles". For any finite number of states d, and in the following two cases: 1)all states have the same energy, 2)the energy is linearly distributed over the states, we transform the…

We provide analytical results for the probability distribution of a family of wavefunctions of a quantum mechanics model of commuting matrices in the large-N limit. These wavefunctions describe the strong coupling limit of 1/8 BPS states of…

This short study reformulates the statistical Bayesian learning problem using a quantum mechanics framework. Density operators representing ensembles of pure states of sample wave functions are used in place probability densities. We show…

We prove that the partition function for tripartite double-dimer configurations of a planar bipartite graph satisfies a recurrence related to the Desnanot-Jacobi identity from linear algebra. A similar identity for the dimer partition…

Reconstruction of the tridimensional geometry of a visual scene using the binocular disparity information is an important issue in computer vision and mobile robotics, which can be formulated as a Bayesian inference problem. However,…

We propose a symmetrization relation between BPS quivers encoding 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories and symmetric quivers associated to 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories. We analyse in detail the symmetrization of BPS quivers for a series of $A_m$…

We extend the planar Pfaffian formalism for the evaluation of the Ising partition function to lattices of high topological genus g. The 3D Ising model on a cubic lattice, where g is proportional to the number of sites, is discussed in…

In theories with $N=2$ supersymmetry on $R^{3,1}$, BPS bound states can decay across walls of marginal stability in the space of Coulomb branch parameters, leading to discontinuities in the BPS indices $\Omega(\gamma,u)$. We consider a…
