Title |
Painlevé / Gauge theory correspondence |
|
Abstract |
The relation between SU(2) gauge theories with N=2 supersymmetry in four dimensions and isomonodromy
problems for SL(2) flat connections on the Riemann sphere with punctures will be illustrated by making use of
M-theory construction of the gauge theory and of the related Hitchin’s integrable system. It will be discussed
how this relation can be used to calculate the gauge theory partition function in the strong coupling regime
and to describe S-duality properties. The embedding of these results in a non-perturbative completion of
topological strings will be briefly highlighted with emphasis on their uplift to five dimensional gauge theories
and multiplicative q-Painlevé equations. |
