S-duality as Fourier transform for arbitrary ε1,ε2ε_1,ε_2

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The AGT relations reduce S-duality to the modular transformations of conformal blocks. It was recently conjectured that for the four-point conformal block the modular transform up to the non-perturbative contributions can be written in form of the ordinary Fourier transform when β≡−ε1/ε2=1β\equiv-ε_1/ε_2=1. Here we extend this conjecture to general values of ε1,ε2ε_1,ε_2. Namely, we argue that for a properly normalized four-point conformal block the S-duality is perturbatively given by the Fourier transform for arbitrary values of the deformation parameters ε1,ε2ε_1,ε_2. The conjecture is based on explicit perturbative computations in the first few orders of the string coupling constant g2≡−ε1ε2g^2\equiv-ε_1ε_2 and hypermultiplet masses.
