Twisted partition functions and H-saddles
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 While studying supersymmetric G-gauge theories, one often observes that a zero-radius limit of the twisted partition function Ω G is computed by the partition function Z G $$ {\mathcal{Z}}^G $$ in one less dimensions.

Black hole horizon edge partition functions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We extend a formula for 1-loop black hole determinants by Denef, Hartnoll, and Sachdev (DHS) to spinning fields on any (d + 1)-dimensional static spherically symmetric black hole.

Comments on squashed-sphere partition functions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We study the partition function of odd-dimensional conformal field theories placed on spheres with a squashed metric. We establish that the round sphere provides a local extremum for the free energy which, in general, is not a global extremum.

TT¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ deformed partition functions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 We demonstrate the presence of modular properties in partition functions of TT¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ deformed conformal field theories. These properties are verified explicitly for the deformed free boson.

5d/6d Wilson loops from blowups
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We generalize Nakajima-Yoshioka’s blowup formula to calculate the partition functions counting the spectrum of bound states to half-BPS Wilson loop operators in 5d (and 6d) supersymmetric field theories. The partition function in the presence of a Wilson

Thermodynamic Compactness and Information-Geometric Bounds in Excluded-Volume Systems
FoundationsWe show that thermodynamic consistency in systems with finite excluded volume implies compact support of the grand canonical particle-number distribution.

BPS partition functions for S-folds
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We derive a formula for the BPS partition functions of arbitrary S-fold theories. We first generalize the known result for the N = 4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ U(N) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to SO and Sp theories, and then we extend the formula to N = 3 $

Black hole scattering and partition functions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 When computing the ideal gas thermal canonical partition function for a scalar outside a black hole horizon, one encounters the divergent single-particle density of states (DOS) due to the continuous nature of the normal mode spectrum.

On the relationship between molecular spectroscopy and statistical mechanics: calculation of partition functionsfor triatomic molecules undergoing large-amplitude bending vibrations [PDF]
Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2011 The evaluation of partition functions for triatomic molecules undergoing large-amplitude bending vibrations is discussed. It was supposed that the needed molecular structure data were obtained by means of ab initio calculations. Special attention is paid
