The condition of convergence of the partition function is related to a classification by Gaiotto-Witten of N=4 linear quiver gauge theories without Chern-Simons coupling constant.
[Kapustin-Willett-Yaakov '10]
The condition of convergence of the partition function is related to a classification by Gaiotto-Witten of N=4 linear quiver gauge theories without Chern-Simons coupling constant. Gaiotto-Witten's classification ① (The dimension of ∀monopole operators) > ½. → “Good” ② (The dimension of ∃monopole operator) = ½. → “Ugly” ③ (The dimension of ∃monopole operator) < ½. → “Bad”

Claim ➡ Suppose the planar free energy is expanded in terms of λ1 as ➡ ➡ Proof QED In the current case, ➡ Transition between (confined) phase (~M) and deconfined one (~M2) occurs in a smooth way.
・ We have argued the level/rank duality from partition function by verifying its invariance under the duality transformation, and from type IIB brane realization by moving 5-branes taking into account the Hanany-Witten effect. ・ By performing the integration explicitly (with a suitable regularization) the partition function completely factorized into that of pure CS theory for two gauge groups and an analogous contribution from the hypermultiplet (“Complete factorization”).
・ We have investigated a minimal N=4 CSM theory from its S3 partition function, which reduces to a matrix model via SUSY localization. ・ We have presented the all order 't Hooft expansion of the free energy, and commented on the connection to the higher-spin theory.
