It was known that the ABJM matrix model is dual to the topological string theory on a Calabi-Yau manifold. Using this relation it was possible to write down the exact instanton expansion of the partition function of the ABJM matrix model. The expression consists of a universal function constructed from the free energy of the refined topological string theory with an overall topological invariant characterizing the Calabi-Yau manifold. In this paper we explore two other superconformal Chern-Simons theories of the circular quiver type. We find that the partition function of one theory enjoys the same expression from the refined topological string theory as the ABJM matrix model with different topological invariants while that of the other is more general. We also observe an unexpected relation between these two theories.

  1. Factorized Quantum Curves and Minuscule Vertices in 3D Duality Cascades with FI Parameters

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Vertices of fundamental domains for del Pezzo quantum curves with FI parameters are realized as factorized curves from 5-branes dressed by FI parameters, matching minuscule weights.

  2. Finiteness and Uniqueness of Duality Cascades in Three Dimensions for Affine Quivers

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For affine D and E quiver Chern-Simons theories, duality cascades terminate uniquely only under large-rank restrictions because the associated polytope tiles the parameter space with gaps.
