Starting with a gentle approach to the Alday–Gaiotto–Tachikawa (AGT) correspondence
from its 6d origin, these notes provide a wide (albeit shallow) survey of the literature on …

Superconformal field theories (SCFTs) occupy a central role in the study of many aspects of
quantum field theory. In this white paper for the Snowmass process we give a brief overview …

Superconformal field theory with $\mathcal {N}= 2$ supersymmetry in four dimensional
spacetime provides a prime playground to study strongly coupled phenomena in quantum …

Flavored modular differential equations sometimes arise from null states or their
descendants in a chiral algebra with continuous flavor symmetry. In this paper we focus on …

We develop techniques to construct isomorphisms between simple affine W-algebras and
affine vertex algebras at admissible levels. We then apply these techniques to obtain many …

A bstract The Schur limit of the superconformal index of four-dimensional\(\mathcal {N}\)= 2
superconformal field theories has been shown to equal the supercharacter of the vacuum …

3d mirrors for all 4d N= 2 Argyres-Douglas (AD) theories engineered using 6d (2, 0) theory
are found. The basic steps are: 1): Find a punctured sphere representation for the AD …

The B _ p B p-algebras are a family of vertex operator algebras parameterized by p ∈ Z _ ≥
2 p∈ Z≥ 2. They are important examples of logarithmic CFTs and appear as chiral algebras …

Superconformal field theories (SCFT) are known to possess solvable yet nontrivial sectors in
their full operator algebras. Two prime examples are the chiral algebra sector on a two …
