Connection formulas relating Frobenius solutions of linear ODEs at different Fuchsian singular points can be expressed in terms of the large order asymptotics of the corresponding power series. We demonstrate that for the usual, confluent and reduced confluent Heun equation, the series expansion of the relevant asymptotic amplitude in a suitable parameter can be systematically computed to arbitrary order. This allows to check a recent conjecture of Bonelli-Iossa-Panea Lichtig-Tanzini expressing the Heun connection matrix in terms of quasiclassical Virasoro conformal blocks.

  1. Projecting Gravitational Fluctuations onto Near-Horizon Throats

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A pair of coordinate changes projects Heun-type gravitational fluctuation equations onto two matched hypergeometric problems, reproducing instanton-counting results and yielding Schwarzian zero modes.

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Seiberg-Witten instanton expansions combined with exact WKB period integrals allow analytic computation and continuation of quasinormal modes from large q to q=0.

  3. Dynamical Tidal Response of Schwarzschild Black Holes

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The dynamical Love numbers of a Schwarzschild black hole are nonzero at quadratic order in frequency, run logarithmically with a coefficient set by dissipation, and are now matched including their finite, scheme-depen...

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper derives the resummed Nekrasov-Shatashvili free energy from blow-up equations and uses it to compute the band-gap structure, connection formulas, and stability chart of the Lamé equation.

  5. Ergodic Hysteresis of the Kerr black hole spectrum

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Near-extremal Kerr black holes with massive scalar fields exhibit a cascade of exceptional points that can adiabatically permute arbitrary quasinormal-mode overtones.

  6. One loop corrections to the thermodynamics of near-extremal Kerr-(A)dS black holes from Heun equation

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Cold near-extremal Kerr-de Sitter black holes carry universal log(T) entropy corrections while rotating Nariai geometries do not, as derived from Teukolsky/Heun connection coefficients.

  7. Janus correlators and Heun's equation

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the 3D Janus background, defect operator dimensions shift by O(c_J^2), and BOPE coefficients are read off as residues of Heun connection coefficients.
