Tetrahedron-instanton construction with D6-branes

Let Z=X×CZ=X\times\mathbb{C}, where XX is a toric Calabi–Yau three-fold, with quiver Q=(Q0,Q1)Q=(Q_0,Q_1) and deformation parameters {qI}IQ1\{q_I\}_{I\in Q_1}. Let Ai(x)\mathsf{A}_i(x) and Wi(x)\mathsf{W}_i(x) be the D0- and D6-brane operators, and set

Ak=iQ0I=1kiAi(xi,I),Wn=: ⁣iQ0α=1niWi(vi,α) ⁣:.\mathsf{A}_{\underline{k}}=\prod_{i\in Q_0}\prod_{I=1}^{k_i}\mathsf{A}_i(x_{i,I}),\qquad \mathsf{W}_{\underline{n}}={:\!\prod_{i\in Q_0}\prod_{\alpha=1}^{n_i}\mathsf{W}_i(v_{i,\alpha})\!:}.

Tetrahedron-instanton BPS/CFT conjecture. After suitable conditions, the deformation parameters can be reparametrized to at most three independent parameters. The partition function with multiple D6-branes wrapping XX is proportional to

1k!iQ0I=1kidxi,I2πιxi,IAk1Wn.\frac{1}{\underline{k}!}\oint\prod_{i\in Q_0}\prod_{I=1}^{k_i}\frac{dx_{i,I}}{2\pi\iota x_{i,I}}\langle\mathsf{A}_{\underline{k}}^{-1}\mathsf{W}_{\underline{n}}\rangle.

This realizes the BPS/CFT correspondence, and the poles are labeled by three-dimensional BPS crystals. The statement is presented as a conjectural general construction for tetrahedron instantons.
