Abstract
We study half-BPS ’t Hooft line operators in 4d mathcal{N} = 2 U(N ) gauge theories on S1× ℝ3 with an Ω-deformation. The recently proposed brane construction of ’t Hooft operators shows that non-perturbative contributions to their correlator are identified with the Witten indices of quiver supersymmetric quantum mechanics. For the products of minimal ’t Hooft operators, a chamber in the space of Fayet-Iliopoulos parameters in the quantum mechanics corresponds to an ordering of the operators inserted along a line. These considerations lead us to conjecture that the Witten indices can be read off from the Moyal products of the expectation values of the minimal ’t Hooft operators, and also that wall- crossing occurs in the quantum mechanics only when the ordering of the operators changes. We confirm the conjectures by explicitly computing the Witten indices for the products of two and three minimal ’t Hooft operators in all possible chambers.
