We study analytic and arithmetic properties of the elliptic gamma function $$\begin{aligned} \prod _{m,n=0}^\infty \frac{1-x^{-1}q^{m+1}p^{n+1}}{1-xq^mp^n}, \quad |q|,|p|<1, \end{aligned}$$∏m,n=0∞1-x-1qm+1pn+11-xqmpn,|q|,|p|<1,in the regime $$p=q$$p=q, in particular, its connection with the elliptic dilogarithm and a formula of S. Bloch. We further extend the results to more general products by linking them to non-holomorphic Eisenstein series and, via some formulae of D. Zagier, to elliptic…

From multi-gravitons to Black holes: The role of complex saddles
By applying the Atiyah-Bott-Berline-Vergne equivariant integration formula upon double dimensional integrals, we find a way to compute the matrix integral representations of $4d$ $\mathcal{N}=1$…
Introduction to the Theory of Elliptic Hypergeometric Integrals
We give a brief account of the key properties of elliptic hypergeometric integrals—a relatively recently discovered top class of transcendental special functions of hypergeometric type. In…
The large-$N$ limit of 4d superconformal indices for general BPS charges
We study the superconformal index of N = 1 quiver theories at large -N for general values of electric charges and angular momenta, using both the Bethe Ansatz formulation and the more recent elliptic…
Short Walk Adventures
We review recent development of short uniform random walks, with a focus on its connection to (zeta) Mahler measures and modular parametrisation of the density functions. Furthermore, we extend…
Supersymmetric phases of 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM at large N
We find a family of complex saddle-points at large N of the matrix model for the superconformal index of SU(N) N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on $S^3 \times S^1$ with one chemical potential $\tau$. The…
The large-N limit of the 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 superconformal index
We systematically analyze the large-$N$ limit of the superconformal index of $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal theories having a quiver description. The index of these theories is known in terms of…
