A series of conjectures is obtained as further investigation of the integral transformation I(alpha) introduced in the previous paper. A Macdonald-type difference operator D is introduced. It is conjectured that D and I(alpha) are…
We establish a connection between the superconformal index of $\mathcal{N}=4$ $U(N)$ SYM and the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Schneider integrable system. The index admits an expression in terms of elliptic Macdonald polynomials, which leads to a…
Some matrix models admit, on top of the usual 't Hooft expansion, an M-theory-like expansion, i.e. an expansion at large N but where the rest of the parameters are fixed, instead of scaling with N. These models, which we call M-theoretic…
We study Macdonald polynomials from a basic hypergeometric series point of view. In particular, we show that the Pieri formula for Macdonald polynomials and its recently discovered inverse, a recursion formula for Macdonald polynomials,…
In the context of integrated correlators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM, we study the 2-point functions of local operators with a superconformal line defect. Starting from the mass-deformed $\mathcal{N}=2^*$ theory in presence of a…
We introduce a notion of $Q$-algebra that can be considered as a generalization of the notion of $Q$-manifold (a supermanifold equipped with an odd vector field obeying $\{Q,Q\} =0$). We develop the theory of connections on modules over…
We prove a connection formula for the basic hypergeomtric function ${}_n\varphi_{n-1}\left( a_1,...,a_{n-1},0; b_1,...,b_{n-1} ; q, z\right)$ by using the $q$-Borel resummation. As an application, we compute $q$-Stokes matrices of a special…
For a conformal theory it is natural to seek the conformal moduli space, M_c to which it belongs, generated by the exactly marginal deformations. By now we should have the tools to determine M_c in the presence of enough supersymmetry. Here…
The generators $(J_{\pm}, J_0)$ of the algebra $U_q(sl(2))$ is our starting point. An invertible nonlinear map involving, apart from q, a second arbitrary complex parameter h, defines a triplet $({\hat X},{\hat Y},{\hat H})$. The latter set…
We present a method to deform (generically non-abelian) T duals of two-dimensional $\sigma$ models, which preserves classical integrability. The deformed models are identified by a linear operator $\omega$ on the dualised subalgebra, which…
We construct supersymmetric deformations of general, locally supersymmetric, nonlinear sigma models in three spacetime dimensions, by extending the pure supergravity theory with a Chern-Simons term and gauging a subgroup of the sigma model…
The paper presents the bosonic and fermionic supersymmetric extensions of the structural equations describing conformally parametrized surfaces immersed in a Grasmann superspace, based on the authors' earlier results. A detailed analysis of…
Considering the model of a scalar massive Fermion, it is shown that by means of deformation techniques it is possible to obtain all integrable quantum field theoretic models on two-dimensional Minkowski space which have factorizing…
A many variable $q$-calculus is introduced using the formalism of braided covector algebras. Its properties when certain of its deformation parameters are roots of unity are discussed in detail, and related to fractional supersymmetry. The…
