Seiberg-Witten Theory and Random Partitions
read the original abstract
We study N=2 supersymmetric four dimensional gauge theories, in a certain N=2 supergravity background, called Omega-background. The partition function of the theory in the Omega-background can be calculated explicitly. We investigate various representations for this partition function: a statistical sum over random partitions, a partition function of the ensemble of random curves, a free fermion correlator. These representations allow to derive rigorously the Seiberg-Witten geometry, the curves, the differentials, and the prepotential. We study pure N=2 theory, as well as the theory with matter hypermultiplets in the fundamental or adjoint representations, and the five dimensional theory compactified on a circle.

The CFT Distance Conjecture and Tensionless String Limits in $\mathcal N=2$ Quiver Gauge Theories
In N=2 SU quiver theories the large-N Hagedorn temperature depends only on quiver length for linear cases and equals that of N=4 SYM for holographic quivers, with a universal lower bound of 1/sqrt(2) on the exponentia...

Shell formulas for instantons and gauge origami
A new shell formula unifies and delivers explicit closed-form expressions plus recursions for instanton partition functions in 5d SYM and multiple gauge origami configurations using arbitrary-dimensional Young diagrams.

From classical Lax ODEs to quantum integrable theories: the moduli
The paper derives moduli-modified functional relations for Wronskians of a classical Lax ODE that identify quantum states, produce Y-systems and TBA equations without scattering theory, and prove two Zamolodchikov con...

Wall-crossing of Instantons on the Blow-up
Instanton partition functions on the blow-up are given by chamber-dependent contour integrals over super-partitions selected by stability conditions, yielding explicit wall-crossing formulas that recover the Nakajima-...

On non-relativistic integrable models and 4d SCFTs
Generalized Schur indices of N=2 class S theories are expressed using eigenfunctions of non-relativistic elliptic Calogero-Moser models, with extensions claimed for N=1 SCFTs via limits of models like Inozemtsev.

One constant to rule them all
In these supersymmetric theories, the coupling matrix has floor(N/2) independent constants under S-duality, with one distinguished constant that remains key in asymptotic and instanton regimes.
