The F-theory realization of the rank-1 Minahan Nemeschansky (MN) $E_6$, $E_7$ and $E_8$ theories leads to a description of the BPS states on the Coulomb branch in terms of Type IIB $(p,q)$-string networks. Subject to a simple ansatz for the…
We consider a class of line operators in d=4, N=2 supersymmetric field theories which leave four supersymmetries unbroken. Such line operators support a new class of BPS states which we call "framed BPS states." These include halo bound…
In this paper we study the BPS state counting in the geometry of local obstructed curve with normal bundle O+O(-2). We find that the BPS states have a framed quiver description. Using this quiver description along with the Seiberg duality…

The BPS state spectrum in four-dimensional gauge theories or string vacua with N=2 supersymmetries is well known to depend on the values of the parameters or moduli at spatial infinity. The BPS index is locally constant, but discontinuous…
For the hypergeometric spectral curve and its confluent degenerations (spectral curves of "hypergeometric type"), we obtain a simple formula expressing the topological recursion free energies as a sum over BPS states (degenerate spectral…
We describe a graph parametrization of rational quadratic differentials with presence of a simple pole, whose critical trajectories form a network depending on parameters focusing on the network topological jumps. Obtained bifurcation…
We show that the BPS spectrum of pure SU(3) four-dimensional super Yang-Mills with N=2 supersymmetry exhibits a surprising phenomenon: there are regions of the Coulomb branch where the growth of the BPS degeneracies with the charge is…
The burnt pancake graph, denoted by $\mathbb{BP}_n$, is formed by connecting signed permutations via prefix reversals. Here, we discuss some spectral properties of $\mathbb{BP}_n$. More precisely, we prove that the adjacency spectrum of…
Graphs can be associated with a matrix according to some rule and we can find the spectrum of a graph with respect to that matrix. Two graphs are cospectral if they have the same spectrum. Constructions of cospectral graphs help us…
It is possible to understand whether a given BPS spectrum is generated by a relevant deformation of a 4D N=2 SCFT or of an asymptotically free theory from the periodicity properties of the corresponding quantum monodromy. With the aim of…
We explicitly construct BPS domain walls interpolating between neighboring chirally asymmetric vacua in a model for large N pure supersymmetric QCD. The BPS equations for the corresponding ${\bf Z}_N$ symmetric order parameter effective…
In this paper we consider the separability problem for bipartite quantum states arising from graphs. Earlier it was proved that the degree criterion is the graph-theoretic counterpart of the familiar positive partial transpose criterion for…
Matrix representations of quantum operators are computationally complete but often obscure the structural topology of information flow within a quantum circuit \cite{nielsen2000}. In this paper, we introduce a generalized graph-theoretic…
We study the BPS spectrum of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $SU(2)$ and a massive adjoint hypermultiplet, which has an extremely intricate structure with infinite spectrum in all chambers…
Stick graphs are defined as follows. Let A (respectively B) be a set of vertical (respectively horizontal) segments in the plane such that the bottom endpoints of the segments in A and the left endpoints of the segments in B lie on the same…
BPS states in supersymmetric theories can admit additional algebro-geometric structures in their spectra, described as quiver Yangian algebras. Equivariant fixed points on the quiver variety are interpreted as vectors populating a…
Generating functions of BPS invariants for N=4 U(r) gauge theory on a Hirzebruch surface with r=2 and 3 are computed. The BPS invariants provide the Betti numbers of moduli spaces of semi-stable sheaves. The generating functions for r=2 are…
We propose a method for determining the spins of BPS states supported on line defects in 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories of class S. Via the 2d-4d correspondence, this translates to the construction of quantum holonomies on a punctured Riemann…
In this paper we consider the concept of preintersection numbers of a graph. These numbers are determined by the spectrum of the adjacency matrix of the graph, and generalize the intersection numbers of a distance-regular graph. By using…
