We study quantum mechanical systems with a discrete spectrum. We show that the asymptotic series associated to certain paths of steepest-descent (Lefschetz thimbles) are Borel resummable to the full result. Using a geometrical approach…
Expansions of physical functions are controlled by their singularities, which have special structure because they themselves are physical, corresponding to instantons, caustics or saddle configurations. Resurgent asymptotics formalizes this…
Methods are reviewed for computing the instanton expansion of the prepotential for N=2 Seiberg-Witten (SW) theory with non-hyperelliptic curves. These results, if compared with the instanton expansion obtained from the microscopic…
We consider the 0-dimensional quartic $O(N)$ vector model and present a complete study of the partition function $Z(g,N)$ and its logarithm, the free energy $W(g,N)$, seen as functions of the coupling $g$ on a Riemann surface. Using…
The aim of this paper is to study the resurgent transseries structure of the inhomogeneous and $q$-deformed Painlev\'e II equations. Appearing in a variety of physical systems we here focus on their description of $(2,4)$-super minimal…
We describe a unitary matrix model which is constructed from discrete analogs of the usual projective modules over the noncommutative torus and use it to construct a lattice version of noncommutative gauge theory. The model is a…

We compute non-perturbative contributions to the Adler function, the derivative of the vacuum polarization function in gauge theory, using resurgence methods and Borel-summed gauge field propagators. At 2-loop, to order $1/N_f$, we…
We give a non-perturbative definition of U(n) gauge theory on fuzzy CP^2 as a multi-matrix model. The degrees of freedom are 8 hermitian matrices of finite size, 4 of which are tangential gauge fields and 4 are auxiliary variables. The…
Recently, a convergent series employing a non-Gaussian initial approximation was constructed and shown to be an effective computational tool for the finite size lattice models with a polynomial interaction. Here we numerically examine the…
We consider the effective superpotentials of N=1 SU(N_c) and U(N_c) supersymmetric gauge theories that are obtained from the N=2 theory by adding a tree-level superpotential. We show that several of the techniques for computing the…
In many physical problems, it is important to capture exponentially-small effects that lie beyond-all-orders of a typical asymptotic expansion; when collected, the full expansion is known as the trans-series. Applied exponential asymptotics…
In the last three decades, Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory (NSPT) has proven to be an excellent tool for calculating perturbative expansions in theories such as Lattice QCD, for which standard, diagrammatic perturbation theory is…
Our main aim in this self-contained article is at the same time to detail the relationships between the resurgence and the hyperasymptotic theories, and to demonstrate how these theories can be used for an implicit resurgent function. For…
We study the prepotential of N=2 gauge theories using the instanton counting techniques introduced by Nekrasov. For the SO theories without matter we find a closed expression for the full prepotential and its string theory gravitational…
We present a brief summary of exact results on the non-perturbative effective superpotential of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories based on generalized Konishi anomaly equations. In particular we consider theories with classical gauge groups…

We study a process of generating random positive integer weight sequences $\{ W_n \}$ where the gaps between the weights $\{ X_n = W_n - W_{n-1} \}$ are i.i.d. positive integer-valued random variables. We show that as long as the gap…
Gauge-invariant polynomial functions of matrix and tensor variables capture combinatorial structures of gauge-string duality, which can be usefully organised using finite-dimensional associative algebras. I review recent work on eigenvalue…
