Remarks on mod-2 elliptic genus

Yuji Tachikawa, Mayuko Yamashita, Kazuya Yonekura

AI总结:

本文研究了模2椭圆亏格在超对称量子场论及拓扑模形式同态中的刻画,证明其在N=(0,1)超对称下由积分模形式的模2约化决定。

摘要:

致物理学家:对于超对称量子力学,在某些情况下可以定义模2 Witten指数,即使更普通的取值为Z的Witten指数消失。类似地,对于2维超对称量子场论,在某些情况下可以定义模2椭圆亏格,即使更普通的椭圆亏格消失。我们在N=(0,1)超对称的背景下研究了此类模2椭圆亏格,并证明在某些假设下,它们由积分模形式的模2约化所刻画。致数学家:我们通过将标准同态π_n TMF→π_n KO((q))≃Z/2((q))(当n=8k+1或8k+2时)与积分模形式的模2约化相关联,研究了该同态的像。

英文摘要:

For physicists: For supersymmetric quantum mechanics, there are cases when a mod-2 Witten index can be defined, even when a more ordinary $\mathbb{Z}$-valued Witten index vanishes. Similarly, for 2d supersymmetric quantum field theories, there are cases when a mod-2 elliptic genus can be defined, even when a more ordinary elliptic genus vanishes. We study such mod-2 elliptic genera in the context of $\mathcal{N}=(0,1)$ supersymmetry, and show that they are characterized by mod-2 reductions of integral modular forms, under some assumptions. For mathematicians: We study the image of the standard homomorphism $π_n \mathrm{TMF}\to π_n \mathrm{KO}((q))\simeq \mathbb{Z}/2((q))$ for $n=8k+1$ or $8k+2$, by relating them to the mod-2 reductions of integral modular forms.
