Trinion conformal blocks from topological strings [PDF]
In this paper we investigate the relation between conformal blocks of Liouville CFT and the topological string partition functions of the rank one trinion theory T 2.

Stable Z-strings with topological polarization in two Higgs doublet model [PDF]
We find that a Z-string is stable in a wide range of parameter space of the two Higgs doublet model due to a split into a pair of two topological Z-strings with fractional Z fluxes.

Intrinsic non-perturbative topological strings [PDF]
We study difference equations which are obtained from the asymptotic expansion of topological string theory on the deformed and the resolved conifold geometries as well as for topological string theory on arbitrary families of Calabi-Yau manifolds near ...

ABJM on ellipsoid and topological strings [PDF]
A bstractIt is known that the large N expansion of the partition function in ABJM theory on a three-sphere is completely determined by the topological string on local Hirzebruch surface F0$$ {\mathbb{F}}_0 $$.

Observation of vortex-string chiral modes in metamaterials [PDF]
As hypothetical topological defects in the geometry of spacetime, vortex strings could have played many roles in cosmology, and their distinct features can provide observable clues about the early universe’s evolution.

Blowup equations for refined topological strings [PDF]
Göttsche-Nakajima-Yoshioka K-theoretic blowup equations characterize the Nekrasov partition function of five dimensional N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric gauge theories compactified on a circle, which via geometric engineering correspond to the ...

Spectral duality in elliptic systems, six-dimensional gauge theories and topological strings [PDF]
A bstractWe consider Dotsenko-Fateev matrix models associated with compactified Calabi-Yau threefolds. They can be constructed with the help of explicit expressions for refined topological vertex, i.e.

Matrix Models from Operators and Topological Strings [PDF]
We propose a new family of matrix models whose 1/N expansion captures the all-genus topological string on toric Calabi–Yau threefolds. These matrix models are constructed from the trace class operators appearing in the quantization of the corresponding ...

SCFTs, Holography, and Topological Strings [PDF]
We show that the non-gravitational sectors of certain 6d and 5d supergravity theories can be decomposed into superconformal field theories (SCFTs) which are coupled together by pairwise identifying and gauging mutual global symmetries.
