Wild Quiver Gauge Theories
read the original abstract
We study N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theories coupled to non-Lagrangian superconformal field theories induced by compactifying the six dimensional A_1 (2,0) theory on Riemann surfaces with irregular punctures. These are naturally associated to Hitchin systems with wild ramification whose spectral curves provide the relevant Seiberg-Witten geometries. We propose that the prepotential of these gauge theories on the Omega-background can be obtained from the corresponding irregular conformal blocks on the Riemann surfaces via a generalization of the coherent state construction to the case of higher order singularities.

Defects, nested instantons and comet shaped quivers
Proposes comet-shaped quiver gauge theories for surface defects with nested instantons in 4D gauge theories on T^2 × T*C_{g,k} and gives conjectural explicit formulae for the virtual equivariant elliptic genus of bund...
