ϵ-CORRECTED SEIBERG–WITTEN PREPOTENTIAL OBTAINED FROM HALF-GENUS EXPANSION IN β-DEFORMED MATRIX MODEL

We consider the half-genus expansion of the resolvent function in the β-deformed matrix model with three-Penner potential under the AGT conjecture and the 0d–4d dictionary. The partition function of the model, after the specification of the paths, becomes the DF conformal block for fixed c and provides the Nekrasov partition function expanded both in and in ϵ = ϵ1+ϵ2. Exploiting the explicit expressions for the lower terms of the free energy extracted from the above expansion, we derive the first few ϵ corrections to the Seiberg–Witten prepotential in terms of the parameters of SU(2), Nf = 4, supersymmetric gauge theory.
