Quiver matrix model of ADHM type and BPS state counting in diverse dimensions

  • 1. Graduate School of Mathematics and KMI, Nagoya University, Nagoya, 464-8602 (Japan)

Description

We review the problem of Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) state counting described by the generalized quiver matrix model of Atiyah-Drinfield-Hitchin-Manin type. In four dimensions the generating function of the counting gives the Nekrasov partition function, and we obtain a generalization in higher dimensions. By the localization theorem, the partition function is given by the sum of contributions from the fixed points of the torus action, which are labeled by partitions, plane partitions and solid partitions. The measure or the Boltzmann weight of the path integral can take the form of the plethystic exponential. Remarkably, after integration the partition function or the vacuum expectation value is again expressed in plethystic form. We regard it as a characteristic property of the BPS state counting problem, which is closely related to the integrability.
