Abstract
We derive Seiberg-Witten like equations encoding the dynamics of \( \mathcal{N}=2 \) ADE quiver gauge theories in presence of a non-trivial Ω-background along a two dimensional plane. The ϵ-deformed prepotential and the chiral correlators of the gauge theory are extracted from difference equations that can be thought as a non-commutative (or quantum) version of the Seiberg-Witten curves for the quiver.
