We evaluate the superconformal index using the Bethe Ansatz (BA) approach for 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ toric quiver gauge theories with a small amount of gauge groups. We restrict to $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ gauge factors and compare the results with the…
The recent developments in the study of topological multi-boundary entanglement in the context of 3d Chern-Simons theory (with gauge group $G$ and level $k$) suggest a strong interplay between entanglement measures and number theory. The…
We reformulate the nested coordinate Bethe ansatz in terms of coproducts of Yangian symmetry generators. This allows us to derive the nested Bethe equations for the bound state string S-matrices. We find that they coincide with the Bethe…
We prove the modified algebraic Bethe Ansatz characterization of the spectral problem for the closed XXX Heisenberg spin chain with an arbitrary twist and arbitrary positive (half)-integer spin at each site of the chain. We provide two…
We propose confining dualities of $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ half-BPS boundary conditions in 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric $SU(N)$, $USp(2n)$ and $SO(N)$ gauge theories. Some of these dualities have the novel feature that one (anti)fundamental…
The Witten index counts the difference in the number of bosonic and fermionic states of a quantum mechanical system. The Schur index, which can be defined for theories with at least $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry in four dimensions is a…

We consider integrable boundary states in the XXX spin-1/2 spin chain. We begin by briefly reviewing the algebraic Bethe Ansatz as well as integrable boundary states in spin chains. Then a recently discovered class of integrable states…
The low energy spectrum of (3+1)-dimensional N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a spatial three-torus contains a certain number of bound states, characterized by their discrete abelian magnetic and electric 't Hooft fluxes. At weak…
We study the underlying extended supersymmetric structure in a system composed of fermions scattered off an infinitely extended static domain wall in the $xz$-plane. As we shall demonstrate, the fermionic scattered states are associated to…
A quantum spin chain with non-conventional boundary conditions is studied. The distinct nature of these boundary conditions arises from the conversion of a soliton to an anti-soliton after being reflected to the boundary, hence the…
The nested off-diagonal Bethe ansatz method is proposed to diagonalize multi-component integrable models with generic integrable boundaries. As an example, the exact solutions of the su(n)-invariant spin chain model with both periodic and…
I propose a method for measuring the Witten index using a lattice simulation. The index is useful to discuss spontaneous breaking of supersymmetry. As a test of the method, I also report some numerical results for the supersymmetric quantum…

We introduce the topologically twisted index for four-dimensional $\mathcal N=1$ gauge theories quantized on ${\rm AdS}_2 \times S^1$. We compute the index by applying supersymmetric localization to partition functions of vector and chiral…
