Class S theories on S 2
We study two-dimensional N = ( 0 , 2 ) and N = ( 0 , 4 ) theories derived from compactifying class S theories on S 2 with a topological twist. We present concise expressions for the elliptic genera of both classes of theories, revealing the topological quantum field theory structure on Riemann surfa...
