We continue our studies of the correspondence between 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs and 2d W-algebras. The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between 2d lisse W-algebras and their 4d SCFT partners. The lisse W-algebra is the…

We find a large class of two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ SCFTs obtained by compactifying four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ quiver gauge theories on a Riemann surface. We study these theories using anomalies and $c$-extremization. The…

In this note, we consider so-called "Higgs Branch Localization" for four dimensional N=2 field theories on 4d ellipsoid. We find a new set of saddle point equations arising from additional Higgs branch deformation term, whose solutions…

We study $5d$ gauge theories that go in the UV to $6d$ $\mathcal{N}$$=(1,0)$ SCFT. We focus on these theories that can be engineered in string theory by brane webs. Given a theory in this class, we propose a method to determine the $6d$…

We utilise SUSY quiver gauge theories to compute properties of Slodowy slices; these are spaces transverse to the nilpotent orbits of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. We analyse classes of quiver theories, with Classical gauge and flavour…

We argue that there is an equivalence of M-theory on T^3 \times A_{N-1} with a four-dimensional non-supersymmetric quiver gauge theory on the Higgs branch. The quiver theory in question has gauge group SU(N)^{N_4N_6N_8} and is considered in…

We study the Coulomb branches of 3d N=4 `star-shaped' quiver gauge theories and their deformation quantizations, by applying algebraic techniques that have been developed in the mathematics and physics literature over the last few years.…

We study a class of four-dimensional N=1 superconformal field theories obtained from the six-dimensional (1,0) theory, on M5-branes on C^2/Z_k orbifold singularity, compactified on a Riemann surface. This produces various quiver gauge…

$Sp(2M)$ invariant field equations in the space ${\cal M}_M$ with symmetric matrix coordinates are classified. Analogous results are obtained for Minkowski-like subspaces of ${\cal M}_M$ which include usual $4d$ Minkowski space as a…

The technique of orthosymplectic quotient quiver subtraction is introduced. This involves subtraction of an orthosymplectic quotient quiver from a $3d\;\mathcal N=4$ orthosymplectic quiver gauge theory which has the effect of gauging…

We show that two nonets and a glueball provide a consistent description of data on scalar mesons below 1.7 GeV. Above 1 GeV the states form a conventional (q bar q) nonet mixed with the glueball of lattice QCD. Below 1 GeV the states also…

Many quantum invariants of knots and 3-manifolds (e.g. Jones polynomials) are special cases of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev 3D TQFT. The latter is in turn a part of a larger theory - the Crane-Yetter 4D TQFT. In this work, we compute the…
