We outline a comprehensive and first-principle solution to the wall-crossing problem in D = 4N = 2 Seiberg–Witten theories. We start with a brief review of the multi-centered nature of the typical BPS states and of how this allows them to disappear abruptly as parameters or vacuum moduli are continuously changed. This means that the wall-crossing problem is really a bound state formation/dissociation problem. A low energy dynamics for arbitrary collections of dyons is derived, with the proximity to the so-called marginal stability wall playing the role of the small expansion parameter. We discover that the low energy dynamics of such BPS dyons cannot be reduced to one on the classical moduli space, [Formula: see text], yet the index can be phrased in terms of [Formula: see text]. The so-called rational invariant, first seen in Kontsevich–Soibelman formalism of wall-crossing, is shown to incorporate Bose/Fermi statistics automatically. Furthermore, an equivariant version of the index is shown to compute the protected spin character of the underlying D = 4N = 2 theory, where [Formula: see text] isometry of [Formula: see text] is identified as a diagonal subgroup of rotation SU(2)L and R-symmetry SU(2)R.

We introduce a rational-valued invariant which is capable of distinguishing between the commensurability classes of certain discrete groups, namely, the fundamental groups of smooth closed orientable aspherical manifolds of dimensional 4k(k ≥ 1) whose Euler characteristic χ(Λ) is non-zero. The invariant in question is the quotientwhere Sign (Λ) is the absolute value of the signature of the intersection formand [Λ] is a generator of H4k(Λ; ℝ).
