This is the companion paper of the letter arXiv:2410.15695, containing all the details and series of examples on a 4d mirror symmetry for the class-$\mathcal{S}$ theories which relates the representation theory of the chiral quantization of…
In a general and non metrical framework, we introduce the class of co-CR quaternionic manifolds, which contains the class of quaternionic manifolds, whilst in dimension three it particularizes to give the Einstein-Weyl spaces. We show that…
This is a review article on the quantum toroidal algebras, focusing on their roles in various solvable structures of 2d conformal field theory, supersymmetric gauge theory, and string theory. Using $\mathcal{W}$-algebras as our starting…
We explain how to use representation theory to give a lower bound on the dimension of the quotient ring by type $B_n$ diagonal invariants that improves upon the current known lower bound $(2n+1)^n$ by a quadratic polynomial in $n$.
We develop geometric techniques to determine the spectrum and the chiral indices of matter multiplets for four-dimensional F-theory compactifications on elliptic Calabi-Yau fourfolds with rank two Mordell-Weil group. The general elliptic…
This is the first comprehensive introduction to the authors' recent attempts toward a better understanding of the global concepts behind spinor representations of surfaces in 3-space. The important new aspect is a quaternionic-valued…
We study toric singularities of the form of $\C^4/\Ga$ for finite abelian groups $\Ga \subset SU(4)$. In particular, we consider the simplest case $\Ga=\Z_2 \times \Z_2 \times \Z_2$ and find explicitly charge matrices for partial…
We propose a method for extracting the Higgs and Coulomb branches of a three-dimensional N = 4 quantum field theory from the algebra of local operators in its holomorphic-topological twist using the formalism of raviolo vertex algebras. Our…
We study F-theory compactified on elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds that are realised as hypersurfaces in toric varieties. The enhanced gauge group as well as the number of massless tensor multiplets has a very simple description in terms of…
Starting from certain rational varieties blown-up from (P^1)^N, we construct a tropical, i.e., subtraction-free birational, representation of Weyl groups as a group of pseudo isomorphisms of the varieties. Furthermore, we develop an…
We study in this article the representation theory of a family of super algebras, called the \emph{super Yang-Mills algebras}, by exploiting the Kirillov orbit method \textit{\`a la Dixmier} for nilpotent super Lie algebras. These super…
We propose a symmetry law for a doublet of different form fields, which resembles gauge transformations for matter fields. This may be done for general Lie groups, resulting in an extension of Lie algebras and group manifolds. It is also…
We investigate the problem of defining group or loop structures on spheres, where by ''sphere'' we mean the level set q(x) = c of a general K-valued quadratic form q, for an invertible scalar c. When K is a field and q non-degenerate, then…
We consider the R-matrix of the quantum toroidal algebra of type gl_1, both abstractly and in Fock space representations. We provide a survey of a certain point of view on this object which involves the elliptic Hall and shuffle algebras,…
Quaternionic tori are defined as quotients of the skew field $\mathbb{H}$ of quaternions by rank-4 lattices. Using slice regular functions, these tori are endowed with natural structures of quaternionic manifolds (in fact quaternionic…
This paper introduces and systematically studies a new class of non-commutative algebras -- Weyl-type and Witt-type algebras -- generated by differential operators with exponential and generalized power function coefficients. We define the…
Any four-dimensional Supersymmetric Quantum Field Theory with eight supercharges can be associated to a certain complex symplectic manifold called the "K-theoretic Coulomb branch" of the theory. The collection of K-theoretic Coulomb…
Using a reformulation of the method of (p,q) webs, we study the four-dimensional N=1 quiver theories from M-theory on seven-dimensional manifolds with G_2 holonomy. We first construct such manifolds as U(1) quotients of eight-dimensional…
It was recently understood that one can identify a chiral algebra in any four-dimensional N=2 superconformal theory. In this note, we conjecture the full set of generators of the chiral algebras associated with the T_n theories. The…
The chiral ring of classical supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $Sp(N)$ or SO(N) is computed, extending previous work (of Cachazo, Douglas, Seiberg, and the author) for SU(N). The result is that, as has been conjectured, the…
