We review and elucidate the rigorous constructions of gauge theories for a particular family of ALE spaces, using their relation to the cohomology of moduli spaces of framed torsion-free sheaves on a suitable orbifold compactification of Xk. We extend these computations to generic N = 2 superconformal quiver gauge theories, obtaining in these instances new constraints on fractional instanton charges, a rigorous proof of the Nekrasov master formula, and new quantizations of Hitchin systems based on the underlying Seiberg–Witten geometry.1 aBruzzo, Ugo1 aSala, Francesco1 aSzabo, Richard J. uhttp://urania.sissa.it/xmlui/handle/1963/3471900840nas a2200145 4500008004100000245004000041210004000081520035300121653006200474100001600536700002100552700002100573700002200594856007800616 2013 en d00aNonabelian Lie algebroid extensions0 aNonabelian Lie algebroid extensions3 a
We classify nonabelian extensions of Lie algebroids in the holomorphic or algebraic category, and introduce and study a spectral sequence that one can attach to any such extension and generalizes the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence associated to an ideal in a Lie algebra. We compute the differentials of the spectral sequence up to $d_2$

We also study the relation between these numerical properties of Higgs bundles and (semi)stability.1 aBruzzo, Ugo1 aGrana-Otero, Beatriz uhttp://hdl.handle.net/1963/175700736nas a2200109 4500008004300000245007600043210006900119520036700188100001600555700001900571856003600590 2006 en_Ud 00aNormal bundles to Laufer rational curves in local Calabi-Yau threefolds0 aNormal bundles to Laufer rational curves in local CalabiYau thre3 aWe prove a conjecture by F. Ferrari. Let X be the total space of a nonlinear deformation of a rank 2 holomorphic vector bundle on a smooth rational curve, such that X has trivial canonical bundle and has sections. Then the normal bundle to such sections is computed in terms of the rank of the Hessian of a suitably defined superpotential at its critical points.1 aBruzzo, Ugo1 aRicco, Antonio uhttp://hdl.handle.net/1963/1785
