Plane partition diamonds were introduced by Andrews, Paule, and Riese (2001) as part of their study of MacMahon's $\Omega$-operator in search for integer partition identities. More recently, Dockery, Jameson, Sellers, and Wilson (2024)…
Given a quiver algebra A with relations defined by a superpotential, this paper defines a set of invariants of A counting framed cyclic A-modules, analogous to rank-1 Donaldson-Thomas invariants of Calabi-Yau threefolds. For the special…
We construct semiorthogonal decompositions of Donaldson-Thomas (DT) categories for reduced curve classes on local surfaces into products of quasi-BPS categories and Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) categories, giving a categorical analogue of the…
We conjecture a two-dimensional conformal field theory built out of a linear dilaton and a compact $\beta\gamma$ system deformed by winding condensates on each of the compact cycles. In particular, explicit expressions of the residues of…
We construct curve counting invariants for a Calabi-Yau threefold $Y$ equipped with a dominant birational morphism $\pi:Y \to X$. Our invariants generalize the stable pair invariants of Pandharipande and Thomas which occur for the case when…
A close connection of reverse plane partitions with an integrable dynamical system called the discrete two-dimensional (2D) Toda molecule is clarified. It is shown that a multiplicative partition function for reverse plane partition of…
The topological vertex is a universal series which can be regarded as an object in combinatorics, representation theory, geometry, or physics. It encodes the combinatorics of 3D partitions, the action of vertex operators on Fock space, the…
Major Percy A. MacMahon's first paper on plane partitions included a conjectured generating function for symmetric plane partitions. This conjecture was proven almost simultaneously by George Andrews and Ian Macdonald, Andrews using the…
The cyclic sieving phenomenon of Reiner, Stanton, and White says that we can often count the fixed points of elements of a cyclic group acting on a combinatorial set by plugging roots of unity into a polynomial related to this set. One of…
We begin the study of categorifications of Donaldson-Thomas invariants associated with Hilbert schemes of points on the three-dimensional affine space, which we call DT categories. The DT category is defined to be the category of matrix…
The thermodynamical partition function of the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory is evaluated using the imaginary-time formalism of quantum field theory at finite temperature and path integral methods. The DKP partition function displays two…
By exploiting new mathematical relations between Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) invariants, closely related to Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariants, and rank 0 Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants counting D4-D2-D0 BPS bound states, we rigorously compute…
Consider zero-dimensional Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a toric threefold or toric Calabi-Yau fourfold. In the second case, invariants can be defined using a tautological insertion. In both cases, the generating series can be expressed in…
Given a brane tiling, that is a bipartite graph on a torus, we can associate with it a quiver potential and a quiver potential algebra. Under certain consistency conditions on a brane tiling, we prove a formula for the Donaldson-Thomas type…
The duality between type IIA superstring theory and M-theory enables us to lift bound states of D$0$-branes and $n$ parallel D$6$-branes to M-theory compactified on an $n$-centered multi-Taub-NUT space $\mathbb{TN}_{n}$. Accordingly, the…
Inspired by Gansner's elegant $k$-trace generating function for rectangular plane partitions, we introduce two novel operators, $\varphi_{z}$ and $\psi_{z}$, along with their combinatorial interpretations. Through these operators, we derive…
For any double Poisson algebra, we produce a double Poisson vertex algebra using the jet algebra construction. We show that this construction is compatible with the representation functor which associates to any double Poisson (vertex)…
MacMahon showed that the generating function for partitions into at most $k$ parts can be decomposed into a partial fractions-type sum indexed by the partitions of $k$. In this present work, a generalization of MacMahon's result is given,…
A study of the partition function of a 3-dimensional scalar-vector model formally related via duality to the Rozansky-Witten topological sigma-model is presented. The partition function is shown to consist of such topological quantities of…
Solid partitions are the 4D generalization of the plane partitions in 3D and Young diagrams in 2D, and they can be visualized as stacking of 4D unit-size boxes in the positive corner of a 4D room. Physically, solid partitions arise…
