Comments on twisted indices in 3d supersymmetric gauge theories

C Closset, H Kim - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We study three-dimensional\(\mathcal {N}\)= 2 supersymmetric gauge theories on Σ
g× S 1 with a topological twist along Σ g, a genus-g Riemann surface. The twisted …

An introduction to supersymmetric field theories in curved space

TT Dumitrescu - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
In this review, we give a pedagogical introduction to a systematic framework for constructing
and analyzing supersymmetric field theories on curved spacetime manifolds. The framework …

Squashing, mass, and holography for 3d sphere free energy

SM Chester, RR Kalloor, A Sharon - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We consider the sphere free energy F (b; m I) in\(\mathcal {N}\)= 6 ABJ (M) theory
deformed by both three real masses m I and the squashing parameter b, which has been …

Introduction to localization in quantum field theory

V Pestun, M Zabzine - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
This is the introductory chapter to this issue. We review the main idea of the localization
technique and its brief history both in geometry and in QFT. We discuss localization in …

q-Virasoro Modular Double and 3d Partition Functions

A Nedelin, F Nieri, M Zabzine - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2017 - Springer
We study partition functions of 3d N= 2 N= 2\rm U (N) U (N) gauge theories on compact
manifolds which are S 1 fibrations over S 2. We show that the partition functions are free field …

How to resum perturbative series in 3d Chern-Simons matter theories

M Honda - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
Continuing the work of Honda [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 211601 (2016)], we study the
perturbative series in general 3d N= 2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons matter theory with U …

Localization on AdS2× S1

JR David, E Gava, RK Gupta, K Narain - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract Conformal symmetry relates the metric on AdS 2× S 1 to that of S 3. This implies
that under a suitable choice of boundary conditions for fields on AdS 2 the partition function …

Supersymmetry anomalies in conformal supergravity

I Papadimitriou - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract We solve the Wess-Zumino consistency conditions of\(\mathcal {N}= 1\) off-shell
conformal supergravity in four dimensions and determine the general form of the …

Gromov–Witten invariants and localization

DR Morrison - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
We give a pedagogical review of the computation of Gromov–Witten invariants via
localization in 2D gauged linear sigma models. We explain the relationship between the two …
