Beschreibung:
  • Non-perturbative aspects of N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories of class S are deeply encoded in the algebra of functions on the moduli space M-flat of flat SL(N)-connections on Riemann surfaces. Expectation values of Wilson and `t Hooft line operators are related to holonomies of flat connections, and expectation values of line operators in the low-energy effective theory are related to Fock-Goncharov coordinates on M-flat. Via the decomposition of UV line operators into IR line operators, we determine their noncommutative algebra from the quantization of Fock-Goncharov Laurent polynomials, and find that it coincides with the skein algebra studied in the context of Chern-Simons theory. Another realization of the skein algebra is generated by Verlinde network operators in Toda field theory. Comparing the spectra of these two realizations provides non-trivial support for their equivalence. Our results can be viewed as evidence for the generalization of the AGT correspondence to higher-rank class S theories.
