abstract

Based on the observed behavior of the superconformal index in three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories, we propose a quantity that can be considered as an analogue of the "effective central charge." We discuss the general properties of this quantity and ways of computing it in a variety of different theories, including simple Lagrangian theories as well as more interesting strongly coupled examples that come from 3d-3d correspondence.

  1. Cardy limit of the 3d superconformal index

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 8.0

    In the Cardy limit the 3d superconformal index obeys Z ~ beta^{-#} on the first sheet and Z ~ e^{#/beta} on the second, with gauge-enhancing saddles screened for non-chiral theories.

  2. Orientation Reversal and the Chern-Simons Natural Boundary

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 8.0

    Resurgence provides a unique analytic continuation across natural boundaries for Chern-Simons q-series that matches 3-manifold orientation reversal via Mordell integral decompositions.

  3. A supergroup series for knot complements

    math.GT 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Defines the three-variable superalgebra series F_K(y,z,q) for knot complements, derives its surgery relation to hat Z(q), and computes examples for torus knots.

  4. Quiver superconformal index and giant gravitons: asymptotics and expansions

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    For toric quiver theories, coefficients of the large-N superconformal index grow like exp(constant*sqrt(n)) times n^((m-5)/4) for the A-hat_m family, with polynomial growth for dP3 and Y^{p,0}.

  5. $c_{\rm eff}$ from Resurgence at the Stokes Line

    hep-th 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Resurgent cyclic orbits' algebraic structure plus the leading q-series term determines the asymptotic growth exponent of dual q-series coefficients, which equals an effective central charge c_eff in a related 3d N=2 QFT.

  6. Quantum invariants of 3-manifolds and links: a review

    math-ph 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 1.0

    This is a survey, not a new result: it reviews the q-series invariants Zhat, F_K, F_L and their supergroup analogues, collecting known conjectures, theorems, and examples.
