CMSA Quantum Matter/Quantum Field Theory Seminar: Holomorphic anomaly in Vafa-Witten theory

Yang-Mills theory. In my talk I will tell how to derive a holomorphic
anomaly equation for its partition function on CP^2 by two different,
but somewhat analogous, methods. First is the derivation from the path
integral of the effective theory on the Coulomb branch. The second is
the derivation from the path-integral in the effective 2d theory
obtained by compactification of the corresponding 6d (2,0) theory on the
ternsor branch.
