Revisiting the multi-monopole point of SU(N) N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theory in four dimensions
Motivated by applications to soft supersymmetry breaking, we revisit the expansion of the Seiberg-Witten solution around the multi-monopole point on the Coulomb branch of pure SU(N) N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theory in four dimensions. At this point N

Abstract S. Gukov and C. Vafa proposed a characterization of rational N=(1,1)$N=(1,1)$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) in 1+1$1+1$ dimensions with Ricci‐flat Kähler target spaces in terms of the Hodge structure of the target space, extending an earlier observation by G. Moore.

SUSY breaking in monopole quivers
We study 3d monopole quivers, theories with product gauge groups interacting through monopole superpotentials and we observe that they are a natural setup for the study of the spontaneous breaking of 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetry.

Conformal manifolds and 3d mirrors of (D n , D m ) theories
The Argyres-Douglas (AD) theories of type (D n , D m ), realized by type IIB geometrical engineering on a single hypersurface singularity, are studied. We analyze their conformal manifolds and propose the 3d mirror theories of all theories in this class ...

T‐Symmetry in String Geometry Theory
String geometry theory is one of the candidates of nonperturbative formulation of string theory. In this paper, we have shown that dimensionally reduced string geometry theories have what we call T‐symmetry. In the case of the dimensional reduction in space‐like directions, the T‐symmetry transformation gives the T‐dual transformation between the Type ...

Quiver maps, nilpotent orbits and Special Pieces of nilcones
This paper explores 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 quiver gauge theories whose moduli spaces represent nilpotent orbits, Słodowy slices or, more generally, Słodowy intersections, which span the Special Pieces of nilcones of Classical or Exceptional algebras.

Homological classification of 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 QFT. Rank-1 revisited
Argyres and co-workers started a program to classify all 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 QFT by classifying Special Geometries with appropriate properties. They completed the program in rank-1. Rank-1 N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 QFT are equivalently classified by

On Calabi‐Yau Manifolds at Strong Topological String Coupling
Abstract It was recently shown that integrating out M2 states on Calabi‐Yau manifolds captures non‐perturbative topological string physics in the free energy. In this note, It has been shown that the resulting expression manifests a certain duality symmetry: the free energy at strong string coupling is equal to the Calabi‐Yau period at weak string ...

Localization of Gauge Theories on the Three-Sphere [PDF]
We describe the application of localization techniques to the path integral for supersymmetric gauge theories in three dimensions. The localization procedure reduces the computation of the expectation value of BPS observables to a calculation in a matrix

de Sitter State in Heterotic String Theory
Abstract Recent no‐go theorems have ruled out four‐dimensional classical de Sitter vacua in heterotic string theory. On the other hand, the absence of a well‐defined Wilsonian effective action and other related phenomena also appear to rule out such time‐dependent vacua with de Sitter isometries, even in the presence of quantum corrections.
