Recently Alday and Tachikawa proposed a relation between conformal blocks in a two-dimensional theory with affine sl(2) symmetry and instanton partition functions in four-dimensional conformal N=2 SU(2) quiver gauge theories in the presence…

Operator nucleon vertices are constructed in composite superconformal string model. Splitting of baryon Regge trajectories with the same quantum numbers but with opposite parity is provided by inclusion of simple additional components to…

Trigonometric formulas are derived for certain families of associated Legendre functions of fractional degree and order, for use in approximation theory. These functions are algebraic, and when viewed as Gauss hypergeometric functions,…

The affine vertex operator algebras for $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ and the Virasoro minimal models are related by Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction and by the Goddard-Kent-Olive coset construction. In this work, we propose another connection based on…

We give a mathematical definition of spaces of irregular vacua/covacua in genus zero, for any simple Lie algebra, working at generic noncritical level. This uses coinvariants of affine-Lie-algebra modules whose parameters match up with…

A modular tensor category provides the appropriate data for the construction of a three-dimensional topological field theory. We describe the following analogue for two-dimensional conformal field theories: a 2-category whose objects are…

We study the semiclassical holographic correspondence between 2d CFT n-point conformal blocks and massive particle configurations in the asymptotically AdS3 space. On the boundary we use the heavy-light approximation in which case two of…

We derive a Hierarchical Equations of Motion (HEOM) description of nonadiabatic Herzberg-Teller type coupling effects and of non-Condon effects in a system of electronic transitions interacting with intra- and inter-molecular vibrational…

This paper focuses on a conformal block with rank $\frac{3}{2}$ irregular singularity which corresponds to the prepotential of the ${\cal H}_1$ Argyres-Douglas theory in $\Omega$ background. We derive this irregular conformal block using…

For a simple, self-dual, strong CFT-type vertex operator algebra (VOA) of central charge $c$, we describe the Virasoro $n$-point correlation function on a genus $g$ marked Riemann surface in the Schottky uniformisation. We show that this…

We continue to investigate the dual description of the Virasoro conformal blocks arising in the framework of the classical limit of the AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ correspondence. To give such an interpretation in previous studies, certain restrictions…

Virasoro irregular conformal block with arbitrary rank is obtained for the classical limit or equivalently Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit using the beta-deformed irregular matrix model (Penner-type matrix model for the irregular conformal…

We derive recursive representations in the internal weights of N-point Virasoro conformal blocks in the sphere linear channel and the torus necklace channel, and recursive representations in the central charge of arbitrary Virasoro…

The recent AGT suggestion to use the set of Nekrasov functions as a basis for a linear decomposition of generic conformal blocks works very well not only in the case of Virasoro symmetry, but also for conformal theories with extended chiral…

The 2-point correlation form factor, $K_2(\tau)$, for small values of $\tau$ is computed analytically for typical examples of pseudo-integrable systems. This is done by explicit calculation of periodic orbit contributions in the diagonal…

Based on the Lie theoretical methods of algebraic Fourier transformation, we classify in the case of generic values of inducing parameters the scalar singular vectors corresponding to the diagonal branching rules for scalar generalized…

In a recent paper, the canonical forms of a new multi-parameter class of Abel differential equations, so-called AIR, all of whose members can be mapped into Riccati equations, were shown to be related to the differential equations for the…

We revisit the critical two-dimensional Ashkin-Teller model, i.e. the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold of the compactified free boson CFT at $c=1$. We solve the model on the plane by computing its three-point structure constants and proving crossing…

Let $\mathbb V=\bigoplus_{n\in\mathbb N}\mathbb V(n)$ be a $C_2$-cofinite VOA, not necessarily rational or self-dual. In this paper, we establish various versions of the sewing-factorization (SF) theorems for conformal blocks associated to…

We consider the problem of computing (irregular) conformal blocks in 2d CFTs whose chiral symmetry algebra is the N=2 superconformal algebra. Our construction uses two ingredients: (i) the relation between the representation theories of the…
