We study the finite part of the sphere partition function of d-dimensional Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) as a function of exactly marginal couplings. In odd dimensions, this quantity is physical and independent of the exactly marginal…
Rediscovered by a systematic search, a forgotten class of integrable surfaces is shown to disprove the Finkel-Wu conjecture. The associated integrable nonlinear partial differential equation $$ z_{yy} + (1/z)_{xx} + 2 = 0 $$ possesses a…
We show that for a one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a potential whose (j+1)'th moment is integrable the j'th derivative of the scattering matrix is in the Wiener algebra of functions with integrable Fourier transforms. We use…
Noninteracting fermions, placed in a system with a continuous density of states, may have zeros in the $N$-fermion canonical partition function on the positive real $\beta$ axis (or very close to it), even for a small number of particles.…
In this thesis we will study matrix models with discrete gauge group $S_N$. We will put these matrix models into a generalized Schur-Weyl duality framework where dual algebras, known as partition algebras, emerge. These form generalizations…
We find all the integer charge solutions to the equations for the cancellation of local gauge anomalies in a class of gauge theories which extend the Standard Model (SM) by a gauge group of the form $G \times U(1)$, where $G$ is an…
In this work we analyze the main properties of the Zariski and maximal spectra of the ring ${\mathcal S}^r(M)$ of differentiable semialgebraic functions of class ${\mathcal C}^r$ on a semialgebraic set $M\subset\mathbb{R}^m$. Denote…
We study various properties of a nonperturbative partition function which can be associated to any spectral curve. When the spectral curve arises from a matrix model, this nonperturbative partition function is given by a sum of matrix…
We study Moser-Trudinger type functionals in the presence of singular potentials. In particular we propose a proof of a singular Carleson-Chang type estimate by means of Onofri's inequality for the unit disk in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Moreover we…
We prove the equivalence of a class of generalised Schur partition functions $\mathcal Z_G(q;\alpha)$ of 4d $\mathcal N=2$ superconformal gauge theories to contour integral representations of vector-valued modular forms of the type that…
A recent novel derivation of the representation of Virasoro singular vectors in terms of Jack polynomials is extended to the supersymmetric case. The resulting expression of a generic super-Virasoro singular vector is given in terms of a…
We study certain Schur functors which preserve singularity categories of rings and we apply them to study the singularity category of triangular matrix rings. In particular, combining these results with Buchweitz-Happel's theorem, we can…
The rank of a skew partition $\lambda/\mu$, denoted $rank(\lambda/\mu)$, is the smallest number $r$ such that $\lambda/\mu$ is a disjoint union of $r$ border strips. Let $s_{\lambda/\mu}(1^t)$ denote the skew Schur function…
We reexamine the external field problem for $N\times N$ hermitian one-matrix models. We prove an equivalence of the models with the potentials $\tr{({1/over2N}X^2 + \log X - \Lambda X)}$ and $\sum_{k=1}^\infty t_k\tr{X^k}$ providing the…
We derive an infinite set of recursion formulae for Nekrasov instanton partition function for linear quiver U(N) supersymmetric gauge theories in 4D. They have a structure of a deformed version of W_{1+\infty} algebra which is called SH^c…
We study the 2D vertex operator algebra (VOA) construction in 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFT) on $S^3 \times S^1$, focusing both on old puzzles as well as new observations. The VOA lives on a two-torus…
In this paper, the massless Schwinger model or two dimensional quantum electrodynamics is exactly solved on a Riemann surface. The partition function and the generating functional of the correlation functions involving the fermionic…
We show that the fermionic matrix model can be realized by $W$-representation. We construct the Virasoro constraints with higher algebraic structures, where the constraint operators obey the Witt algebra and null 3-algebra. The remarkable…
Partition functions of eigenvalue matrix models possess a number of very different descriptions: as matrix integrals, as solutions to linear and non-linear equations, as tau-functions of integrable hierarchies and as special-geometry…
The objects of the present study are one-parameter semigroups generated by Schr\"odinger operators with fairly general electromagnetic potentials. More precisely, we allow scalar potentials from the Kato class and impose on the vector…
