A conjectured 4d mirror symmetry for A1 class-S theories matches simple modules of the Higgs-branch VOA to fixed manifolds of the Hitchin Coulomb branch, with conformal weights and modular Jordan types fixed by moment-map values and manifold dimensions.

abstract
Recently a prescription to compute the four-dimensional N = 2 superconformal index in the presence of certain BPS surface defects has been given. These surface defects are labelled by symmetric representations of SU(N). In the present paper we give a prescription to compute the superconformal index in the presence of surface defects labelled by arbitrary representations of SU(N). Furthermore, we extend the dictionary between the N = 2 superconformal Schur-index and correlators of q-deformed Yang-Mills to incorporate such surface defects.

Mirror symmetry for 4d $A_1$ class-$\mathcal{S}$ theories: modularity, defects and Coulomb branch
A conjectured 4d mirror symmetry for A1 class-S theories matches simple modules of the Higgs-branch VOA to fixed manifolds of the Hitchin Coulomb branch, with conformal weights and modular Jordan types fixed by moment-map values and manifold dimensions.
