It has been found that surface operators have a significant role in AGT relation. This duality is an outstanding consequence of M-theory, but it is actually encoded into the brane web for which the topological string can work. From this viewpoint, the surface defect in AGT relation is geometrically engineered as a toric brane realization. Also, there is a class of the brane configuration in M-theory called M-strings which can be translated into the language of the topological string. In this work, we propose a new M-string configuration which can realize AGT relation in the presence of the surface defect by utilizing the geometric transition in the refined topological string.

  1. Surface Defects in $A$-type Little String Theories

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The authors give a combinatorial partition function for A-type little string theories with a full-type surface defect and argue that two NS-limit regularizations are both regular due to a recursive pole-cancellation identity.
