Abstract

We attempt to determine the partition function of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory for ADE gauge groups on K3 and investigate the relation with affine Lie algebras. In particular we describe eta functions, which compose SU(N) partition function, by level N AN-1 theta functions. Moreover we find D,E theta functions, which satisfy the Montonen-Olive duality for D,E partition functions.
