We generalize the Jeffrey-Kirwan localization theorem for non-compact symplectic and hyperKahler quotients. Similarly to the circle compact integration of Hausel and Proudfoot we define equivariant integrals on non-compact manifolds using…
The aim of this paper is to describe how to obtain residue-type formulas for push-forwards in equivariant cohomology, using the Jeffrey-Kirwan nonabelian localization theorem and the related result of Guillemin and Kalkman. This paper…
We apply the Jeffrey-Kirwan method to compute the multiple integrals for the $BCD$ type Nekrasov partition functions of four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. We construct a graphical distinction rule to determine…
For a finite-dimensional (but possibly noncompact) symplectic manifold with a compact group acting with a proper moment map, we show that the square of the moment map is an equivariantly perfect Morse function in the sense of Kirwan, and…
In this paper we obtain an expression for the residue as it occurs in the non-Abelian localization formula due to Jeffrey and Kirwan. This expression can be used in cohomology computations for symplectic quotients.
We give a mathematically rigorous proof of Nekrasov's conjecture: the integration in the equivariant cohomology over the moduli spaces of instantons on $\mathbb R^4$ gives a deformation of the Seiberg-Witten prepotential for N=2 SUSY…
Moduli spaces of instantons on ALE spaces for classical groups are examples of fixed point sets of involutions on quiver varieties, i.e., $\sigma$-quiver varieties. In 2018 Yiqiang Li considered their equivariant cohomology, and by stable…
We survey some features of equivariant instanton partition functions of topological gauge theories on four and six dimensional toric Kahler varieties, and their geometric and algebraic counterparts in the enumerative problem of counting…
We generalize the recently proposed noncommutative ADHM construction to the case of $\Gamma$-equivariant instantons over $\R^4$, with $\Gamma$ a Kleinian group. We show that a certain form of the inhomogeneous ADHM equations describes…
Suppose given a linearized action on a polarized complex projective manifold (M,L), and assume that the stable locus is non-empty. We study the leading asymptotics of the dimension of the equivariant summands appearing in the space of…
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…
This is the third article in the collection of reviews "Exact results on N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories", ed. J. Teschner. It is explained how to compute the instanton partition functions. The results can be written as sums over bases…
Lisa Jeffrey and Frances Kirwan developed an integration theory for symplectic reductions. That is, given a symplectic manifold with symplectic group action, they developed a way of pulling the integration of forms on the reduction back to…
We construct an equivariant extension of the quantum Kirwan map and show that it intertwines the classical Steenrod operation on the cohomology of a classifying space with the quantum Steenrod operation of a monotone symplectic reduction.…
We discuss the theory of equivariant localization focussing on applications relevant for holography. We consider geometries comprising compact and non-compact toric orbifolds, as well as more general non-compact toric Calabi-Yau…
We calculate the volume entropy of local Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type in terms of its invariant $r$, $a$, $b$.
We construct an equivariant microlocal lift for locally symmetric spaces. In other words, we demonstrate how to lift, in a ``semi-canonical'' fashion, limits of eigenfunction measures on locally symmetric spaces to Cartan-invariant measures…
In their 2007 paper, Jarvis, Kaufmann, and Kimura defined the full orbifold $K$-theory of an orbifold ${\mathfrak X}$, analogous to the Chen-Ruan orbifold cohomology of ${\mathfrak X}$ in that it uses the obstruction bundle as a quantum…
We review the status of quantising (non-abelian) gauge theories using different versions of a Hamiltonian formulation corresponding to Dirac's instant and front form of dynamics, respectively. In order to control infrared divergences we…
The Jeffrey-Kirwan residue is a powerful tool for computation of intersection numbers or volume of symplectic quotients. In this article, we give an algorithm to compute it using Gr\"obner bases. Our result is parallel to that of…
