We study the classical c\to \infty limit of the Virasoro conformal blocks. We point out that the classical limit of the simplest nontrivial null-vector decoupling equation on a sphere leads to the Painleve VI equation. This gives the explicit representation of generic four-point classical conformal block in terms of the regularized action evaluated on certain solution of the Painleve VI equation. As a simple consequence, the monodromy problem of the Heun equation is related to the connection problem for the Painleve VI.

  1. Quasinormal Modes of Extremal Reissner-Nordstrom Black Holes via Seiberg-Witten Quantization

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Maps scalar perturbations around extremal charged black holes to Seiberg-Witten quantization to obtain the first non-perturbative quasinormal mode spectrum for charged massive fields.

  2. Fluid dynamics as intersection problem

    hep-th 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Fluid dynamics is formulated as an intersection problem on a symplectic manifold associated with spacetime, yielding a geometric derivation of covariant hydrodynamics and extensions to multicomponent and anomalous fluids.
