Résumé: A class of BPS solutions in N=2 supergravity describes multi-centered black holes. Generically, they are stable only in a chamber of the moduli space so that the BPS index, counting these solutions, jumps across walls of marginal stability. I'll show how the attractor flow conjecture allows to express this index in terms of "attractor degeneracies" counting black holes at theattractor point. Besides, using duality constraints from string theory, I predict the behavior of the generating function of these degeneracies under modular transformations, which connects it to the theory of mock modular forms.

Résumé: This note is a reply to the paper (arXiv:1801.0559v2): " The gauge-invariant Lagrangian, the Power-Zienau-Woolley picture, and the choices of field momenta in nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics" by G. Kónya, et al.See also our first reply (arXiv:1804.07472v1) in response to their initial comment "The equivalence of the Power-Zineau-Woolley picture and the Poincaré gauge from the very first principles " ( arXiv:1801.05590v1) ————————————– In a recent paper, we have shown that the Power-Zienau-Woolley Hamiltonian does not derived from the minimal-coupling hamiltonian with the help of a gauge transformation. This result has been challenged by G. Kónya and al. They first claim an error [arXiv:1801.05590v1] followed by a subsequent allegation that the Power-Zienau-Woolley hamiltonian can be derived starting from the electromagnetic action.We do not share their conclusions and show in two back-to-back replies [arXiv:1804.07472v1 followed by this note] that their successive statements are not correct.

A Bäcklund transformation for elliptic four-point conformal blocks

Résumé: We apply an integral transformation to solutions of a partial differential equation for five-point correlation functions in Liouville theory on a sphere with one degenerate field $V_{-\frac{1}{2b}}$. By repeating this transformation, we can reach a whole lattice of values for the conformal dimensions of the four other operators. Factorizing out the degenerate field leads to integral representations of the corresponding four-point conformal blocks. We illustrate this procedure on the elliptic conformal blocks discovered in a previous publication.

Résumé: We analyze the modular properties of D3-brane instanton corrections to the hypermultiplet moduli space in type IIB string theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold. In Part I, we found a necessary condition for the existence of an isometric action of S-duality on this moduli space: the generating function of DT invariants in the large volume attractor chamber must be a vector-valued mock modular form with specified modular properties. In this work, we prove that this condition is also sufficient at two-instanton order. This is achieved by producing a holomorphic action of SL(2,Z) on the twistor space which preserves the holomorphic contact structure. The key step is to cancel the anomalous modular variation of the Darboux coordinates by a local holomorphic contact transformation, which is generated by a suitable indefinite theta series. For this purpose we introduce a new family of theta series of signature (2,n-2), find their modular completion, and conjecture sufficient conditions for their convergence, which may be of independent mathematical interest.
