Description

In this talk, I will present the all-orders perturbative expansion of the partition function of 2d Yang-Mills on arbitrary closed surfaces around unstable instantons, i.e. higher critical points of the classical action. I will describe two approaches to this result: through resummation of the lattice partition function, and through non-standard supersymmetric localization. The result of localization is a novel effective action that is itself a distribution rather than a function of the supersymmetric moduli.
