Topological partition functions and (iterated) integrals of modular forms
As a consequence of electric-magnetic duality, partition functions of four-dimensional gauge theories can be
expressed in terms of modular forms in many cases. I will discuss new results for the modularity of topologically
twisted partition functions of N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric theories, and in particular how these partititon
functions may involve (iterated) integrals of modular forms.
