abstract
We study various non-perturbative approaches to the quantization of the Seiberg-Witten curve of ${\cal N}=2$, $SU(2)$ super Yang-Mills theory, which is closely related to the modified Mathieu operator. The first approach is based on the quantum WKB periods and their resurgent properties. We show that these properties are encoded in the TBA equations of Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke determined by the BPS spectrum of the theory, and we relate the Borel-resummed quantum periods to instanton calculus. In addition, we use the TS/ST correspondence to obtain a closed formula for the Fredholm determinant of the modified Mathieu operator. Finally, by using blowup equations, we explain the connection between this operator and the $\tau$ function of Painleve $\rm III$.

Eigenfunctions of deformed Schr\"odinger equations
Explicit entire eigenfunctions are constructed for the difference operators 2Λ^N cosh(p)+V_N(x) with arbitrary polynomial potential; they become square-integrable only at a discrete set of energies.

Regular and Floquet bases for gauge and gravity theories: a non perturbative approach
A new kink method computes the Floquet phase of Heun-type equations as convergent series, matching the dual gauge period of N=2 SYM in the NS background and giving black-hole perturbation wavefunctions.

$Q$-operators, $q$-opers, and R-matrices in 5d $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theory
In 5d N=1 U(N) gauge theory, codimension-two defects produce Q-operators whose q-difference equations are the Baxter TQ equations of XXZ spin chains built on bi-infinite evaluation modules of quantum affine algebras.

Integrals of motion in $WE_6$ CFT and the ODE/IM correspondence
The WKB periods of the E_6^(1) linear problem agree with the integrals of motion of the W E6 CFT on highest-weight states up to spin 6 under the standard parameter dictionary.

On W-algebras and ODE/IM correspondence
The eigenvalues of quantum KdV-type charges in Virasoro, W3, and W4 algebras are computed from Bethe roots via WKB periods of Catalan curves, verified against direct CFT diagonalization.
