On ’t Hooft defects, monopole bubbling and supersymmetric quantum mechanics

Abstract We revisit the localization computation of the expectation values of ’t Hooft operators in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2* SU(N) theory on ℝ3 × S 1. We show that the part of the answer arising from “monopole bubbling” on ℝ3 can be understood as an equivariant integral over a Kronheimer-Nakajima mo...
