摘要
We derive an integral representation for the superconformal index of the strongly-coupled N = 2 superconformal field theory with E-6 flavor symmetry. The explicit expression of the index allows highly non-trivial checks of Argyres-Seiberg duality and of a class of S-dualities conjectured by Gaiotto.
