We compute, to the lowest perturbative order in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theory, $n$-point correlators in the coordinate and momentum representation of the gauge-invariant twist-$2$ operators with maximal spin along the $p_+$ direction, both in…

Based on our earlier work on free field realizations of conformal blocks for conformal field theories with $SL(2)$ current algebra and with fractional level and spins, we discuss in some detail the fusion rules which arise. By a careful…

In this paper, we define a new, special second order cone as a type-$k$ second order cone. We focus on the case of $k=2$, which can be viewed as SOCO with an additional {\em complicating variable}. For this new problem, we develop the…

We study N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories with gauge group SU(2) coupled to fundamental flavours, covering all asymptotically free and conformal cases. We re-derive, from the conformal field theory perspective, the differential equations…

We study the geometry of double point loci of maps $F:M\to N$ of complex manifolds through the lens of Segre-Schwartz-MacPherson (SSM) classes. Classical double point formulas express the fundamental class of the closure of the double point…

We consider in general two-block substitutions and their fixed points. We prove that some of them have a simple structure: their fixed points are morphic sequences. Others are intrinsically more complex, such as the Kolakoski sequence. We…

We study spin-2 fluctuations around an infinite family of warped backgrounds of the form $\text{AdS}_2 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \text{S}^1 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho}$ in the type IIB theory, which possesses $\mathcal{N}=4$…

The quantisation of the Wess-Zumino-Witten model on a circle is discussed in the case of $SU(N)$ at level $k$. The quantum commutation of the chiral vertex operators is described by an exchange relation with a braiding matrix, $Q$. Using…

Integrals of characteristic classes of tautological sheaves on the Hilbert scheme of points on a surface frequently arise in enumerative problems. We use the K-theoretic Donaldson-Thomas theory of certain toric Calabi-Yau threefolds to…

We prove that the isomonodromic tau function on a torus with Fuchsian singularities and generic monodromies in $GL(N,\mathbb{C})$ can be written in terms of a Fredholm determinant of Cauchy-Plemelj operators. We further show that the minor…

We describe field-theory T^2/Z_n orbifolds that offer new ways of breaking SU(N) to lower rank subgroups. We introduce a novel way of embedding the point group into the gauge group, beyond the usual mapping of torus and root lattices. For…

We give a geometric description of the fusion rules of the affine Lie algebra su(2)_k at a positive integer level k in terms of the k-th power of the basic gerbe over the Lie group SU(2). The gerbe can be trivialised over conjugacy classes…

We derive exact formulas for circular Wilson loops in the $\mathcal{N}=4$ and $\mathcal{N}=2^{* }$ theories with gauge groups $U(N)$ and $SU(N)$ in the $k$-fold symmetrized product representation. The formulas apply in the limit of large…

In this letter the explicit form of general two-point functions in affine SL(N) current algebra is provided for all representations, integrable or non-integrable. The weight of the conjugate field to a primary field of arbitrary weight is…

By calculating the second-order pole in the operator product expansion (OPE) between the spin-3 Casimir operator and the spin-4 Casimir operator known previously, the spin-5 Casimir operator is obtained in the coset model based on…

We construct bosonized vertex operators (VOs) and conjugate vertex operators (CVOs) of $U_q(su(2)_k)$ for arbitrary level $k$ and representation $j\leq k/2$. Both are obtained directly as two solutions of the defining condition of vertex…

The 16 higher spin currents with spins (1, 3/2, 3/2, 2), (3/2, 2, 2, 5/2), (3/2, 2, 2, 5/2) and (2, 5/2, 5/2, 3) in an extension of large N=4 `nonlinear' superconformal algebra in two dimensions were obtained previously. By analyzing the…

For any complex simple Lie algebra, we generalize primary fileds in the Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten conformal field theory with respect to the case of irregular singularities and we construct integral representations of hypergeometric…

We show that a 2-parameter family of $\tau$-functions for the first Painlev\'e equation can be constructed by the discrete Fourier transform of the topological recursion partition function for a family of elliptic curves. We also perform an…

Group elements of SU(2) are expressed in closed form as finite polynomials of the Lie algebra generators, for all definite spin representations of the rotation group. The simple explicit result exhibits connections between group theory,…
