Bridging 4D QFTs and 2D VOAs via 3D high-temperature EFTs

Bridging 4D QFTs and 2D VOAs via 3D high-temperature EFTs

The high-temperature limit of the superconformal index, especially on higher sheets, often captures useful universal information about a theory. In 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories with fractional r-charges, there exists a special notion of high-temperature limit on higher sheets that captures data of three-dimensional topological quantum field theories arising from …
