We present a summary of current knowledge about the AGT relations for conformal blocks with additional insertion of the simplest degenerate operator, and a special choice of the corresponding intermediate dimension, when the conformal…
The T-duality symmetries of a family of two-dimensional massive integrable field theories defined in terms of asymmetric gauged Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten actions modified by a potential are investigated. These theories are examples of…
In this paper, I will show how to use $\beta$-deformations to deal with dual flatness of $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics. It is a natural continuation of the research on dually flat Randers metrics(see arxiv:1209.1150). $\beta$-deformations is a…
We present a general approach for evaluating a large variety of three-dimensional Fourier transforms. The transforms considered include the useful cases of the Coulomb and dipole potentials, and include situations where the transforms are…
We consider a special degeneration limit $\omega_1\to - \omega_2$ (or $b\to {\rm i}$ in the context of $2d$ Liouville quantum field theory) for the most general univariate hyperbolic beta integral. This limit is also applied to the most…
We consider $f(R)$ gravity and Born-Infeld-Einstein (BIE) gravity in formulations where the metric and connection are treated independently and integrate out the metric to find the corresponding models solely in terms of the connection, the…
Exact field theory dualities can be implemented by duality domain walls such that passing any operator through the interface maps it to the dual operator. This paper describes the S-duality wall of four-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ SU(N) SQCD…
We show that the vanishing of the one-loop beta-functional of the doubled formalism (which describes string theory on a torus fibration in which the fibres are doubled) is the same as the equation of motion of the recently proposed…
Associated with every quaternionic representation of a compact, connected Lie group there is a Seiberg-Witten equation in dimension three. The moduli spaces of solutions to these equations are typically non-compact. We construct Kuranishi…
One can associate an invariant to a large class of regular codimension two defects of the six dimensional $(0,2)$ SCFT $\mathscr{X}[j]$ using the classical Springer correspondence. Such an association allows a simple description of…
In this paper we produce further specification of the geometric and algebraic properties of the earlier introduced superdimensional dual-covariant field theory (SFT) in a N-dimensional manifold [1] as an approach to a unified field theory…
Motivated by the representation of the super Virasoro constraints as generalized Dirac-K{\"a}hler constraints $(d \pm d^\dagger)|\psi> = 0$ on loop space, examples of the most general continuous deformations $d \to e^{-W} d e^W$ are…
The classical theory of Fuchsian differential equations is largely equivalent to the theory of Seiberg dualities for quiver SUSY gauge theories. In particular: all known integral representations of solutions, and their connection formulae,…
The S--duality transformations of the lowest order string effective theory admit a space time interpretation for 4-dim backgrounds with one Killing symmetry. Starting from pure gravity and performing a sequence of intertwined T-S-T duality…
SL(2,Z) duality transformations in asymptotically AdS4 x S^7 act non-trivially on the three-dimensional SCFT of coincident M2-branes on the boundary. We show how S-duality acts away from the IR fixed point. We develop a systematic method to…
We modify the definition of l^1-homology and argue why our definition is more adequate than the classical one. While we cannot reconstruct the classical l^1-homology from the new definition for various reasons, we can reconstruct its…
The low energy gauge theory living on D-branes probing a del Pezzo singularity of a non-compact Calabi-Yau manifold is not unique. In fact there is a large equivalence class of such gauge theories related by Seiberg duality. As a step…
Although the introduction of generalised and extended geometry has been motivated mainly by the appearance of dualities upon reductions on tori, it has until now been unclear how (all) the duality transformations arise from first principles…
We discuss the degeneration limits of d=4 superconformal indices that relate Seiberg duality for the d=4 N=1 SQCD theory to Aharony and Giveon-Kutasov dualities for d=3 N=2 SQCD theories. On a mathematical level we argue that this 3d/4d…
In the previous author's paper the Macdonald norm conjecture (including the famous constant term conjecture) was proved. This paper contains the proof of the remaining two (the duality and evaluation conjectures). The evaluation theorem is…
