An elliptic vertex of Awata-Feigin-Shiraishi type for M-strings

Abstract

We write down a vertical representation for the elliptic Ding-Iohara-Miki algebra, and construct an elliptic version of the refined topological vertex of Awata, Feigin and Shiraishi. We show explicitly that this vertex reproduces the elliptic genus of M-strings, and that it is an intertwiner of the algebra.
