A bstract We present a quantum M2 brane computation of the instanton prefactor in the
leading non-perturbative contribution to the ABJM 3-sphere free energy at large N and fixed …

A bstract We study worldsheet instantons in holographic type IIA backgrounds directly in
string theory. The first background is a dimensional reduction of AdS 7× S 4 and is dual to …

A bstract The partition function of ABJM theory on the three-sphere has nonperturbative
corrections due to membrane instantons in the M-theory dual. We show that the full series of …

We review some exact results for the matrix models appearing in the localization of Chern–
Simons-matter theories, focusing on the structure of non-perturbative effects and on the M …

A bstract We analyze the constraints imposed by unitarity and crossing symmetry on the four-
point function of the stress-tensor multiplet of\(\mathcal {N}= 8\) superconformal field theories …

A bstract We study the instanton effects of the ABJM partition function using the Fermi gas
formalism. We compute the exact values of the partition function at the Chern-Simons levels …

A bstract We find new bilinear relations for the partition functions of the U (N) k× U (N+ M)− k
ABJ theory with two parameter mass deformation (m 1, m 2), which generalize the\(\mathfrak …

We propose that the grand canonical topological string partition functions satisfy finite-
difference equations in the closed string moduli. In the case of genus one mirror curve, these …

A bstract The partition function of the ABJM theory receives non-perturbative corrections due
to instanton effects. We study these non-perturbative corrections, including bound states of …

A bstract We construct the Fermi gas formalism for the partition function of supersymmetric
Chern-Simons theories with affine D-type quiver diagrams with non-uniform ranks of the …
