We give a mathematical definition of spaces of irregular vacua/covacua in genus zero, for any simple Lie algebra, working at generic noncritical level. This uses coinvariants of affine-Lie-algebra modules whose parameters match up with…
Irregular conformal block is a new tool to study Argyres-Douglas theory, whose irregular vector is represented as a simultaneous eigenstate of a set of positive Virasoro generators. One way to find the irregular conformal block is to use…

We analyze conformal blocks with multiple (semi-)degenerate field insertions in Liouville/Toda conformal field theories an show that their vector space is fully reproduced by the four-dimensional limit of open topological string amplitudes…
In this paper we construct irregular representations of the affine Kac-Moody algebra $\widehat{sl}(2,\mathbb{C})$. We show how such irregular representations correspond to irregular Gaiotto-Teschner representations of the Virasoro algebra.…
We develop the theory of irregular conformal blocks of the Virasoro algebra. In previous studies, expansions of irregular conformal blocks at regular singular points were obtained as degeneration limits of regular conformal blocks; however,…
We construct confluent conformal blocks of the second kind of the Virasoro algebra. We also construct the Stokes transformations which map such blocks in one Stokes sector to another. In the BPZ limit, we verify explicitly that the…
In this paper we investigate 5-point Liouville conformal block with a level 2 degenerate field insertion. Our main tool is the BPZ differential equation, which, upon placing three of the insertions at the standard positions $\infty$, $1$,…
We compute the correlation functions of irregular Gaiotto states appearing in the colliding limit of the Liouville theory by using "regularizing" conformal transformations mapping the irregular (coherent) states to regular vertex operators…
In this work we derive braid group representations and Stokes matrices for Liouville conformal blocks with one irregular operator. By employing the Coulomb gas formalism, the corresponding conformal blocks can be interpreted as…
We construct an explicit bundle with flat connection on the configuration space of n points of a complex curve. This enables one to recover the `formality' isomorphism between the Lie algebra of the prounipotent completion of the pure braid…
We propose a simple approach to formal deformations of associative algebras. It exploits the machinery of multiplicative coresolutions of an associative algebra A in the category of A-bimodules. Specifically, we show that certain…
We study the boundedness of families of algebraic flat connections with bounded irregularity. As an application, we study the boundedness of families of holonomic $D$-modules with dominated characteristic cycles.
Any flat connection on a principal fibre bundle comes from a linear representation of the fundamental group. The noncommutative analog of this fact is discussed here.
