We review some aspects of the cutting and gluing law in local quantum field theory. In particular, we emphasize the description of gluing by a path integral over a space of polarized boundary conditions, which are given by leaves of some Lagrangian foliation in the phase space. We think of this path integral as a non-local $(d-1)$-dimensional gluing theory associated to the parent local $d$-dimensional theory. We describe various properties of this procedure and spell out conditions under which symmetries of the parent theory lead to symmetries of the gluing theory. The purpose of this paper is to set up a playground for the companion paper where these techniques are applied to obtain new results in supersymmetric theories.

We describe applications of the gluing formalism discussed in the companion paper. When a $d$-dimensional local theory $text{QFT}_d$ is supersymmetric, and if we can find a supersymmetric polarization for $text{QFT}_d$ quantized on a $(d-1)$-manifold
$W$, gluing along $W$ is described by a non-local $text{QFT}_{d-1}$ that has an induced supersymmetry. Applying supersymmetric localization to $text{QFT}_{d-1}$, which we refer to as the boundary localization, allows in some cases to represent gluing by finite-dimensional integrals over appropriate spaces of supersymmetric boundary conditions. We follow this strategy to derive a number of `gluing formulas in various dimensions, some of which are new and some of which have been previously conjectured. First we show how gluing in supersymmetric quantum mechanics can reduce to a sum over a finite set of boundary conditions. Then we derive two gluing formulas for 3D $mathcal{N}=4$ theories on spheres: one providing the Coulomb branch representation of gluing, and another providing the Higgs branch representation. This allows to study various properties of their $(2,2)$-preserving boundary conditions in relation to Mirror Symmetry. After that we derive a gluing formula in 4D $mathcal{N}=2$ theories on spheres, both squashed and round. First we apply it to predict the hemisphere partition function, then we apply it to the study of boundary conditions and domain walls in these theories. Finally, we mention how to glue half-indices of 4D $mathcal{N}=2$ theories.
In this paper we consider a conformal invariant chain of $L$ sites in the unitary irreducible representations of the group $SO(1,5)$. The $k$-th site of the chain is defined by a scaling dimension $Delta_k$ and spin numbers $frac{ell_k}{2}$, $frac{do
t{ell}_k}{2}$. The model with open and fixed boundaries is shown to be integrable at the quantum level and its spectrum and eigenfunctions are obtained by separation of variables. The transfer matrices of the chain are graph-builder operators for the spinning and inhomogeneous generalization of squared-lattice fishnet integrals on the disk. As such, their eigenfunctions are used to diagonalize the mirror channel of the the Feynman diagrams of Fishnet conformal field theories. The separated variables are interpreted as momentum and bound-state index of the $textit{mirror excitations}$ of the lattice: particles with $SO(4)$ internal symmetry that scatter according to an integrable factorized $mathcal{S}$-matrix in $(1+1)$ dimensions.
We solve, for finite $N$, the matrix model of supersymmetric $U(N)$ Chern-Simons theory coupled to $N_{f}$ massive hypermultiplets of $R$-charge $frac{1}{2}$, together with a Fayet-Iliopoulos term. We compute the partition function by identifying it
with a determinant of a Hankel matrix, whose entries are parametric derivatives (of order $N_{f}-1$) of Mordell integrals. We obtain finite Gauss sums expressions for the partition functions. We also apply these results to obtain an exhaustive test of Giveon-Kutasov (GK) duality in the $mathcal{N}=3$ setting, by systematic computation of the matrix models involved. The phase factor that arises in the duality is then obtained explicitly. We give an expression characterized by modular arithmetic (mod 4) behavior that holds for all tested values of the parameters (checked up to $N_{f}=12$ flavours).
We investigate certain $Z_3$-graded associative algebras with cubic $Z_3$-invariant constitutive relations. The invariant forms on finite algebras of this type are given in the low dimensional cases with two or three generators. We show how the Lor
entz symmetry represented by the $SL(2, {bf C})$ group emerges naturally without any notion of Minkowskian metric, just as the invariance group of the $Z_3$-graded cubic algebra and its constitutive relations. Its representation is found in terms of Pauli matrices. The relationship of this construction with the operators defining quark states is also considered, and a third-order analogue of the Klein-Gordon equation is introduced. Cubic products of its solutions may provide the basis for the familiar wave functions satisfying Dirac and Klein-Gordon equations.
We construct recently introduced palatial NC twistors by considering the pair of conjugated (Born-dual) twist-deformed $D=4$ quantum inhomegeneous conformal Hopf algebras $mathcal{U}_{theta }(su(2,2)ltimes T^{4}$) and $mathcal{U}_{bar{theta}}(su(2,2)
ltimesbar{T}^{4}$), where $T^{4}$ describe complex twistor coordinatesand $bar{T}^{4}$ the conjugated dual twistor momenta. The palatial twistors are suitably chosen as the quantum-covariant modules (NC representations) of the introduced Born-dual Hopf algebras. Subsequently we introduce the quantum deformations of $D=4$ Heisenberg-conformal algebra (HCA) $su(2,2)ltimes H^{4,4}_hslash$ ($H^{4,4}_hslash=bar{T}^4 ltimes_hslash T_4$ is the Heisenberg algebra of twistorial oscillators) providing in twistorial framework the basic covariant quantum elementary system. The class of algebras describing deformation of HCA with dimensionfull deformation parameter, linked with Planck length $lambda_p$ will be called the twistorial DSR (TDSR) algebra, following the terminology of DSR algebra in space-time framework. We shall describe the examples of TDSR algebra linked with Palatial twistors which are introduced by the Drinfeld twist and by the quantization map in $H_hslash^{4,4}$. We introduce as well generalized quantum twistorial phase space by considering the Heisenberg double of Hopf algebra $mathcal{U}_theta(su(2,2)ltimes T^4).$
