Infinite chiral symmetry in four dimensions

C Beem, M Lemos, P Liendo, W Peelaers… - … in Mathematical Physics, 2015 - Springer
We describe a new correspondence between four-dimensional conformal field theories with
extended supersymmetry and two-dimensional chiral algebras. The meromorphic …

A slow review of the AGT correspondence

B Le Floch - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

Gauge theories and Macdonald polynomials

A Gadde, L Rastelli, SS Razamat, W Yan - … in Mathematical Physics, 2013 - Springer
We study the N= 2 four-dimensional superconformal index in various interesting limits, such
that only states annihilated by more than one supercharge contribute. Extrapolating from the …

Tinkertoys for Gaiotto duality

O Chacaltana, J Distler - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010 - Springer
We describe a procedure for classifying\(\mathcal {N}= 2\) superconformal theories of the
