Open AccessTidal resonances for fuzzballs
We study the gravitational tidal response of D1D5, Top Star and (1,0,n) strata horizonless geometries. We find that the tidal interactions in fuzzball geometries, unlike in the case of black holes, exhibits a ...

Open AccessPost Newtonian emission of gravitational waves from binary systems: a gauge theory perspective
Using the AGT correspondence and localization, we derive a combinatorial formula for the Post-Newtonian expansion of the wave form describing the gravitational emission from binary systems made of objects of e...

Open AccessOn irregular states and Argyres-Douglas theories
Conformal theories of the Argyres-Douglas type are notoriously hard to study given that they are isolated and strongly coupled thus lacking a lagrangian description. In flat space, an exact description is prov...

Open AccessPartition functions of non-Lagrangian theories from the holomorphic anomaly
The computation of the partition function in certain quantum field theories, such as those of the Argyres-Douglas or Minahan-Nemeschansky type, is problematic due to the lack of a Lagrangian description. In th...

Exact results in \( \mathcal{N}=2 \) gauge theories
We derive exact formulae for the partition function and the expectation values of Wilson/’t Hooft loops, thus directly checking their S-duality transformations. We focus on a special class of
