This paper is based on my presentation at RIMS workshop on "Theory of Integrable Systems and Its Applications in Various Fields" held in Kyoto on 19--21, August 2015. The aim of the present paper is to give a short account of recent studies…

Gamayun, Iorgov and Lisovyy in 2012 proposed that tau function of the Painlev\'e equation is equal to the series of $c=1$ Virasoro conformal blocks. We study similar series of $c=-2$ conformal blocks and relate it to Painlev\'e theory. The…

We elucidate the relation between Painlev\'e equations and four-dimensional rank one ${\cal N= 2}$ theories by identifying the connection associated to Painlev\'e isomonodromic problems with the oper limit of the flat connection of the…

We study the solution of the Schlesinger system for the 4-point $\mathfrak{sl}_N$ isomonodromy problem and conjecture an expression for the isomonodromic $\tau$-function in terms of 2d conformal field theory beyond the known $N=2$…

This work studies Liouville conformal blocks of irregular type with the insertion of at least one level-$3$ degenerate field admitting a Fibonacci fusion rule. We algebraically derive the corresponding third-order BPZ equations for regular…

We study periodic spectral problems through their connection with supersymmetric gauge theories and two-dimensional conformal field theory. To characterize the associated stability chart, we develop a novel and systematic approach for…

Combining the semiclassical/Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit of the AGT conjecture and the Bethe/gauge correspondence results in a triple correspondence which identifies classical conformal blocks with twisted superpotentials and then with…

In this work we launch a systematic theory of superconformal blocks for four-point functions of arbitrary supermultiplets. Our results apply to a large class of superconformal field theories including 4-dimensional models with any number…

We study four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory in the presence of surface and point-like defects (blowups) and propose an identity relating partition functions at different values of $\Omega$-deformation parameters…

We consider in this work some class of strongly perturbed for the semilinear wave equation with conformal power nonlinearity. We obtain an optimal estimate for a radial blow-up solution and we have also obtained two less stronger estimates.…

Classical conformal blocks naturally appear in the large central charge limit of 2D Virasoro conformal blocks. In the $AdS_{3}/CFT_{2}$ correspondence, they are related to classical bulk actions and are used to calculate entanglement…

We elaborate on a recently conjectured relation of Painlev\'e transcendents and 2D CFT. General solutions of Painlev\'e VI, V and III are expressed in terms of $c=1$ conformal blocks and their irregular limits, AGT-related to instanton…

The short-distance expansion of the tau function of the radial sine-Gordon/Painlev\'e III equation is given by a convergent series which involves irregular $c=1$ conformal blocks and possesses certain periodicity properties with respect to…

Blowup equations and holomorphic anomaly equations are two universal yet completely different approaches to solve refined topological string theory on local Calabi-Yau threefolds corresponding to A- and B-model respectively. The former…

Irregular conformal block is motivated by the Argyres-Douglas type of N=2 super conformal gauge theory. We investigate the classical/NS limit of the irregular conformal block using spectral curve on a Riemann surface with irregular…

In a recent paper (arXiv:0906.3219) the representation of Nekrasov partition function in terms of nontrivial two-dimensional conformal field theory has been suggested. For non-vanishing value of the deformation parameter…

We study BPS surface observables of $\mathcal{N}=2$ four dimensional $SU(2)$ gauge theory in gravitational $\Omega$-background at perturbative and at Argyres-Douglas superconformal fixed points. This is done by formulating the equivariant…

We prove a Fredholm determinant and short-distance series representation of the Painlev\'e V tau function $\tau(t)$ associated to generic monodromy data. Using a relation of $\tau(t)$ to two different types of irregular $c=1$ Virasoro…

We derive bilinear tau forms of the canonically quantized Painlev\'e equations, thereby relating them to those previously obtained from the $\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ blowup relations for the $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theory…

We study explicit formula (suggested by Gamayun, Iorgov, Lisovyy) for Painlev\'e III($D_8$) $\tau$ function in terms of Virasoro conformal blocks with central charge $1$. The Painlev\'e equation has two types of bilinear forms, we call them…
