Holomorphic blocks and the 5d AGT correspondence
Abstract
We review the holomorphic block factorisation of partition functions of supersymmetric theories on compact manifolds in various dimensions. We then show how to interpret 3d and 5d partition functions as correlation functions with underlying symmetry given by a deformation of the Virasoro algebra.
