Geometric S-duality for Vafa–Witten invariants

About 3 years old · traced to

Let VW^dm,a(B,q)t\hat{\mathsf{VW}}^{\mathsf m,\mathsf a}_{\mathsf d}(B,q)_t denote the Vafa–Witten generating series, with indices recording degree, monopole data, and flux. Geometric S-duality. If rank r=2{\mathsf r}=2, then

(12)⋅[VW^dm,a(B,q)]t=2−2g+1∑(d′,m′,a′)(−1)(d,m,a)⋅(d′,m′,a′)[VW^d′a′(B,q)]t.(12)\cdot[\hat{\mathsf{VW}}^{\mathsf m,\mathsf a}_{\mathsf d}(B,q)]_t =2^{-2g+1}\sum_{({\mathsf d'},{\mathsf m'},{\mathsf a'})}(-1)^{({\mathsf d},{\mathsf m},{\mathsf a})\cdot({\mathsf d'},{\mathsf m'},{\mathsf a'})}[\hat{\mathsf{VW}}^{{\mathsf a'}}_{{\mathsf d'}}(B,q)]_t.

The relation follows formally from the proposed transformation with insertions and the permutation of the generating series under τ↦−1/τ\tau\mapsto-1/\tau; it is presented as a conjectural geometric form of SS-duality.
