Deconstructing little strings with $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theories on ellipsoids

A formula was recently proposed for the perturbative partition function of certain $\mathcal N=1$ gauge theories on the round four-sphere, using an analytic-continuation argument in the number of dimensions. These partition functions are not currently accessible via the usual supersymmetric-localis...
