We have examined the deformation of a generic non-Abelian gauge theory obtained by replacing its Lie group by the corresponding quantum group. This deformed gauge theory has more degrees of freedom than the theory from which it is derived.…

We find the transformation properties of the prepotential ${\cal F}$ of $N=2$ SUSY gauge theory with gauge group $SU(2)$. In particular we show that ${\cal G}(a)=\pi i\left({\cal F}(a)-{1\over 2}a\partial_a{\cal F}(a)\right)$ is modular…

The orbifold generalization of the partition function, which would describe the gauge theory on the ALE space, is investigated from the combinatorial perspective. It is shown that the root of unity limit of the q-deformed partition function…

We consider N=4 theories on ALE spaces of $A_{k-1}$ type. As is well known, their partition functions coincide with $A_{k-1}$ affine characters. We show that these partition functions are equal to the generating functions of some peculiar…

We use holomorphic factorization to find the partition functions of an abelian two-form chiral gauge-field on a flat six-torus. We prove that exactly one of these partition functions is modular invariant. It turns out to be the one that…

We propose a Nekrasov-type formula for the instanton partition functions of four-dimensional N=2 U(2) gauge theories coupled to (A_1,D_{2n}) Argyres-Douglas theories. This is carried out by extending the generalized AGT correspondence to…

We study properties of the full partition function for the $U(1)$ 5D $\mathcal{N}=2^*$ gauge theory with adjoint hypermultiplet of mass $M$. This theory is ultimately related to abelian 6D (2,0) theory. We construct the full…

We classify translatively exponential and GL(2,Z) covariant valuations on lattice polygons valued at measurable real functions. A typical example of such valuations is induced by the Laplace transform, but as it turns out there are many…

We describe an application of the linear $\de$-expansion to the calculation of correlation functions in SU(2)-Higgs lattice gauge theory. A significant advantage of the technique is that an infinite volume lattice may be used, allowing the…

In this paper, we investigate two types of $U(1)$-gauge field theories on $G_2$-manifolds. One is the $U(1)$-Yang-Mills theory which admits the classical instanton solutions, we show that $G_2$-manifolds emerge from the anti-self-dual…
