We describe the modern formalism, ideas and applications of the instanton calculus for gauge theories with, and without, supersymmetry. Particular emphasis is put on developing a formalism that can deal with any number of instantons. This…
These are extended notes for my talk at the ICMP 2003 in Lisbon. Our goal here is to demonstrate how natural and fundamental random partitions are from many different points of view. We discuss various natural measures on partitions, their…
We study the instanton counting in four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories on the blow-up of $\mathbb{C}^2$: we start by formulating the instanton moduli space as a quiver variety, which we regularise by introducing…
We study N=2 supersymmetric four dimensional gauge theories, in a certain N=2 supergravity background, called Omega-background. The partition function of the theory in the Omega-background can be calculated explicitly. We investigate…

We consider procedures of sampling parts from a random integer partition. We determine asymptotically the probabilty distribution of the randomly-selected part whenever the positive integer that is partitioned becomes large.
