abstract

We compute exactly the partition function of two dimensional N=(2,2) gauge theories on S^2 and show that it admits two dual descriptions: either as an integral over the Coulomb branch or as a sum over vortex and anti-vortex excitations on the Higgs branches of the theory. We further demonstrate that correlation functions in two dimensional Liouville/Toda CFT compute the S^2 partition function for a class of N=(2,2) gauge theories, thereby uncovering novel modular properties in two dimensional gauge theories. Some of these gauge theories flow in the infrared to Calabi-Yau sigma models - such as the conifold - and the topology changing flop transition is realized as crossing symmetry in Liouville/Toda CFT. Evidence for Seiberg duality in two dimensions is exhibited by demonstrating that the partition function of conjectured Seiberg dual pairs are the same.

Hyperfunctions in $A$-model Localization

hep-th · 2025-09-30 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Derives a distributional real-line integral formula for abelian observables in A-twisted N=(2,2) theories on S², verifies it on the CP^{N-1} GLSM correlator, and uses hyperfunctions to equate it with contour integrals matching the Jeffrey-Kirwan prescription.
