  1. Topological Twisting of 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ Supersymmetric Field Theories

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    For any 4d N=2 theory, topologically twisted partition functions depend on the diffeomorphism type, 't Hooft fluxes, and a generalized spin-c structure.

  2. 4d CFT Correlators from Ambitwistors

    hep-th 2026-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Conserved spinning two- and three-point correlators in 4d CFTs are obtained from holomorphic contour integrals on ambitwistor space, with spin, parity, and even a conformally coupled scalar treated uniformly.

  3. An unusual BPS equation

    hep-th 2025-01 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    All rotation-invariant superconformal defects satisfy CD/aT = -2(n-1)(p+2)Γ(p+1)/(n π^{p-n/2} Γ(p/2+1)Γ((n-p)/2)), proved from supersymmetric Ward identities.

  4. Quiver superconformal index and giant gravitons: asymptotics and expansions

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For toric quiver theories, coefficients of the large-N superconformal index grow like exp(constant*sqrt(n)) times n^((m-5)/4) for the A-hat_m family, with polynomial growth for dP3 and Y^{p,0}.

  5. CFT Complexity and Penalty Factors

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A submersion-based method turns weighted generator costs into state-complexity metrics for CFTs, giving analytic formulas in simple limits and constraints on which weight choices are viable.

  6. Conformal Mapping of Non-Lorentzian Geometries in SU(1,2) Conformal Field Theory

    hep-th 2024-11 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    An explicit conformal mapping is derived between null-reduced R times S^3 and Omega-deformed Minkowski TNC geometries, giving the state-operator generator map H0 = (R^2 H + C/R^2 - J - N)/2 in SU(1,2) non-Lorentzian CFTs.

  7. Superconformal Blocks for Mixed 1/2-BPS Correlators with $SU(2)$ R-symmetry

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Explicit superconformal blocks for mixed half-BPS correlators with SU(2) R-symmetry are computed for all contributing multiplets in a dimension-independent way.

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Thermal partition functions of conformal higher-derivative and higher-spin fields develop universal poles in (1-|ω_i|) in the semi-universal limit, with residues sensitive to negative-twist states, verified via mode s...

    Pedagogical crash-course notes on supersymmetric field theory across 2–10 dimensions, organized around recurring structures such as holomorphy, dualities, indices, BPS data, and anomalies.
