The refined BPS growth conjecture for three-dimensional N=2 theories

Let ana_n be the coefficients of a supersymmetric partition function for a three-dimensional N=2\mathcal{N}=2 theory. Let rQ/Zr\in\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} and let ceffCc_{\text{eff}}\in\mathbb{C}. Refined BPS growth conjecture. The growth of supersymmetric (BPS) states is

anRe[exp(2π23ceffn+2πirn)].a_n\sim\operatorname{Re}\left[\exp\left(\sqrt{\frac{2\pi^2}{3}c_{\text{eff}}n}+2\pi i rn\right)\right].

This refines the basic BPS Cardy behavior by allowing oscillatory phases and complex effective central charge; its validity beyond the examples motivating the paper remains open.
