In these lectures we discuss the supersymmetry algebra and its irreducible representations. We construct the theories of rigid supersymmetry and gave their superspace formulations. The perturbative quantum properties of the extended…

We study certain exactly marginal gaugings involving arbitrary numbers of Argyres-Douglas (AD) theories and show that the resulting Schur indices are related to those of certain Lagrangian theories of class $\mathcal{S}$ via simple…

We show that four-dimensional superconformal algebras admit an infinite-dimensional derived enhancement after performing a holomorphic twist. The type of higher symmetry algebras we find are closely related to algebras studied by…

Formulas are obtained that express the Schur S-functions indexed by Young diagrams of rectangular shape as linear combinations of "mixed" products of Schur's S- and Q-functions. The proof is achieved by using representations of the affine…

We show that the anomalous dimension $\gamma_G$ of the scalar glueball operator contains information on the mechanism that leads to the onset of conformality at the lower edge of the conformal window in a non-Abelian gauge theory. In…

We consider the $q$-nonabelianization map, which maps links $L$ in a 3-manifold $M$ to links $\widetilde{L}$ in a branched $N$-fold cover $\widetilde{M}$. In quantum field theory terms, $q$-nonabelianization is the UV-IR map relating two…

The Lie algebra of vector fields on $S^1$ integrates to the Lie group of diffeomorphisms of $S^1$. It is well known since the work of Segal and Neretin that there is no Lie group whose Lie algebra is the complexification of vector fields on…

Recently, an intriguing correspondence was conjectured in arXiv:2409.11551 between Schur half-indices of pure 4d $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory with line operator insertions and partition functions of the…

Let $\alpha :1,(1,\sqrt{x},\sqrt{y})^{\wedge }$ be a weight sequence with Stampfli's subnormal completion and let $W_{\alpha }$ be its associated weighted shift. In this paper we discuss some properties of the region…

We consider a problem which may be viewed as an inverse one to the Schwinger realization of Lie algebra, and suggest a procedure of deforming the so-obtained algebra. We illustrate the method through a few simple examples extending…

Six-dimensional conformal field theories with $(2,0)$ supersymmetry are shown to possess a protected sector of operators and observables that are isomorphic to a two-dimensional chiral algebra. We argue that the chiral algebra associated to…

This thesis expands the available techniques at weak coupling by investigating the linear space of Feynman integrals and the role that (super)symmetry plays in reducing the number of integrals necessary to calculate correlators in the…

Highest weight categories arising in Lie theory are known to be associated with finite dimensional quasi-hereditary algebras such as Schur algebras or blocks of category $\mathcal O$. An analogue of the PBW theorem will be shown to hold for…

The Schur index in four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory with $U(N)$ gauge group has a natural two-parameter deformation. We find that a matrix integral in such a deformed Schur index can be exactly evaluated by using…

A new, adiabatic phase choice is adopted for the overlap in the case of an infinite volume, noncompact abelian chiral gauge theory. This gauge choice obeys the same symmetries as the Brillouin-Wigner (BW) phase choice, and, in addition,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. In \cite{KK_2025(1)}, the authors introduced $R$-weighted graphs as a tool for studying commutators in groups and Lie algebras. These graphs are equivalent to a system of balance equations, and their…

After a short review of the algebraic setting of N=2 superconformal field theories, their chiral ring and their perturbations, I present some recent results on curious relations between the integrability of their perturbations and algebraic…

Fix a positive integer number $r$. A class of $r$-dim Lie conformal superalgebras named $r$-dim $i$-linear Lie conformal superalgebras are studied for $1\leq i \leq r$. We present an equivalent characterization of this class of Lie…

Motivated by problems arising in the study of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories we introduce and study irregular singularities in two-dimensional conformal field theory, here Liouville theory. Irregular singularities are associated to…

We discuss the problem of vacuum structure in light-front field theory in the context of (1+1)-dimensional gauge theories. We begin by reviewing the known light-front solution of the Schwinger model, highlighting the issues that are…
