Renormalization-group methods in soft-collinear effective theory are used to perform the resummation of large perturbative logarithms for deep-inelastic scattering in the threshold region x->1. The factorization theorem for the structure…
We explore the Ramond sector of the deformed two-dimensional $\cal N = (4, 4)$ superconformal $(T^4)^N /S_N$ orbifold theory, describing bound states of D1-D5 brane system in type IIB superstring. We derive the large-$N$ limit of the…
In these lectures, recent progress on multiloop superstring perturbation theory is reviewed. A construction from first principles is given for an unambiguous and slice-independent two-loop superstring measure on moduli space for even spin…
Instantons and renormalons play important roles at the interface between perturbative and non-perturbative quantum field theory. They are both associated with branch points in the Borel transform of asymptotic series, and as such can be…
A series of informal seminars at graduate-student level on the subject of coupling dependence in quantum field theory, with an elementary introduction to the notion of resurgent function that forms the appropriate framework for the coupling…
Linear recursion relations for the instanton corrections to the effective prepotential are derived for two cases of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories; the first case with an arbitrary number of hypermultiplets in the fundamental…
We define the partition and $n$-point correlation functions for a vertex operator superalgebra on a genus two Riemann surface formed by sewing two tori together. For the free fermion vertex operator superalgebra we obtain a closed formula…
We present a matrix model which interpolates between type IIA and type IIB NS five-branes. The matrix description involves a three-dimensional bulk quantum field theory interacting with impurities localized in one spatial direction. We…
We study a certain class of supersymmetric (SUSY) observables in 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SUSY Chern-Simons (CS) matter theories and investigate how their exact results are related to the perturbative series with respect to coupling constants…
We generalize earlier results on one-point functions in N = 4 SYM with a co-dimension one defect, dual to the D3-D5-brane setup in type IIB string theory on AdS5xS5, to a similar setup in the $\beta$-deformed version of the theory. The…
In part I general aspects of the renormalization of a spontaneously broken gauge theory have been introduced. Here, in part II, two-loop renormalization is introduced and discussed within the context of the minimal Standard Model.…
Let $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a smooth curve containing the origin. Does every Borel subset of $\mathbb R^d$ of sufficiently small codimension enjoy a S\'ark\"ozy-like property with respect to $\Gamma$, namely, contain two elements…
We study the resurgent structure of the topological string dual to 2d $U(N)$ Yang-Mills on torus. We find closed form formulas for instanton amplitudes up to arbitrarily high instanton orders, based on which we propose the non-perturbative…
Following the new gauging fixing method of D'Hoker and Phong, we study two-loop superstrings in hyperelliptic language. By using hyperelliptic representation of genus 2 Riemann surface we derive a set of identities involving the Szeg\"o…
We propose random matrix models which have $N=\half$ supersymmetry in zero dimension. The supersymmetry breaks down spontaneously. It is shown that the double scaling limit can be defined in these models and the breakdown of the…
Two-point super-resolution is an important problem in many signal processing applications. In this paper, we aim to establish a resolution theory for two-point super-resolution from a single snapshot. We consider a complex two-point model…
We study D-instanton contributions to supergraviton scattering amplitudes in the ten-dimensional type IIB superstring theory beyond the leading non-perturbative order. In particular, we determine the one-D-instanton contribution to maximal…
We discuss some physical consequences of the resurgent structure of Painleve equations and their related conformal block expansions. The resurgent structure of Painleve equations is particularly transparent when expressed in terms of…

Nonperturbative effects in string theory are usually associated to D-branes. In many cases it can be explicitly shown that D-brane instantons control the large-order behavior of string perturbation theory, leading to the well-known (2g)!…
