In modern mathematical and theoretical physics various generalizations, in particular supersymmetric or quantum, of Riemann surfaces and complex algebraic curves play a prominent role. We show that such supersymmetric and quantum generalizations can be combined together, and construct supersymmetric quantum curves, or super-quantum curves for short. Our analysis is conducted in the formalism of super-eigenvalue models: we introduce $beta$-deformed version of those models, and derive differential equations for associated $alpha/beta$-deformed super-matrix integrals. We show that for a given model there exists an infinite number of such differential equations, which we identify as super-quantum curves, and which are in one-to-one correspondence with, and have the structure of, super-Virasoro singular vectors. We discuss potential applications of super-quantum curves and prospects of other generalizations.
As we have shown in the previous work, using the formalism of matrix and eigenvalue models, to a given classical algebraic curve one can associate an infinite family of quantum curves, which are in one-to-one correspondence with singular vectors of a certain (e.g. Virasoro or super-Virasoro) underlying algebra. In this paper we reformulate this problem in the language of conformal field theory. Such a reformulation has several advantages: it leads to the identification of quantum curves more efficiently, it proves in full generality that they indeed have the structure of singular vectors, it enables identification of corresponding eigenvalue models. Moreover, this approach can be easily generalized to other underlying algebras. To illustrate these statements we apply the conformal field theory formalism to the case of the Ramond version of the super-Virasoro algebra. We derive two classes of corresponding Ramond super-eigenvalue models, construct Ramond super-quantum curves that have the structure of relevant singular vectors, and identify underlying Ramond super-spectral curves. We also analyze Ramond multi-Penner models and show that they lead to supersymmetric generalizations of BPZ equations.
We provide the classification of real forms of complex D=4 Euclidean algebra $mathcal{epsilon}(4; mathbb{C}) = mathfrak{o}(4;mathbb{C})) ltimes mathbf{T}_{mathbb{C}}^4$ as well as (pseudo)real forms of complex D=4 Euclidean superalgebras $mathcal{epsilon}(4|N; mathbb{C})$ for N=1,2. Further we present our results: N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric D=4 Poincare and Euclidean r-matrices obtained by using D= 4 Poincare r-matrices provided by Zakrzewski [1]. For N=2 we shall consider the general superalgebras with two central charges.
We study spectral properties of Dirac operators on bounded domains $Omega subset mathbb{R}^3$ with boundary conditions of electrostatic and Lorentz scalar type and which depend on a parameter $tauinmathbb{R}$; the case $tau = 0$ corresponds to the MIT bag model. We show that the eigenvalues are parametrized as increasing functions of $tau$, and we exploit this monotonicity to study the limits as $tau to pm infty$. We prove that if $Omega$ is not a ball then the first positive eigenvalue is greater than the one of a ball with the same volume for all $tau$ large enough. Moreover, we show that the first positive eigenvalue converges to the mass of the particle as $tau downarrow -infty$, and we also analyze its first order asymptotics.
We show how some classical r-matrices for the D=4 Poincare algebra can be supersymmetrized by an addition of part depending on odd supercharges. These r-matrices for D=4 super-Poincare algebra can be presented as a sum of the so-called subordinated r-matrices of super-Abelian and super-Jordanian type. Corresponding twists describing quantum deformations are obtained in an explicit form. These twists are the super-extensions of twists obtained in the paper arXiv:0712.3962.
The quantization of the Teichmuller theory has led to the formulation of the so-called Teichmuller TQFT for 3-manifolds. In this paper we initiate the study of supersymmetrization of the Teichmuller TQFT, which we call the super Teichmuller spin TQFT. We obtain concrete expressions for the partition functions of the super Teichmuller spin TQFT for a class of spin 3-manifold geometries, by taking advantage of the recent results on the quantization of the super Teichmuller theory. We then compute the perturbative expansions of the partition functions, to obtain perturbative invariants of spin 3-manifolds. We also comment on the relations of the super Teichmuller spin TQFT to 3-dimensional Chern-Simons theories with complex gauge groups, and to a class of 3d N=2 theories arising from the compactifications of the M5-branes.
