Adjoint functors and tree duality
A family T of digraphs is a complete set of obstructions for a digraph H if for an arbitrary digraph G the existence of a homomorphism from G to H is equivalent to the non-existence of a homomorphism from any member of T to G. A digraph H is said to have tree duality if there exists a complete set of obstructions T consisting of orientations of trees. We show that if H has tree duality, then it...
متن کاملDuality of Sp(2Nc) and SO(Nc) Supersymmetric Gauge Theories with Adjoint Matter
We discuss electric-magnetic duality in two new classes of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. The models have gauge group Sp(2Nc) or SO(Nc) with matter in both the adjoint and defining representations. By perturbing these theories with various superpotentials, we find a variety of new infrared fixed points with dual descriptions. This work is complementary to that of Kutasov and Schwimmer on S...
متن کاملDuality Symmetries of 4d Heterotic Strings
Target space duality (T duality), which interchanges Kaluza–Klein and winding-mode excitations of the compactified heterotic string, is realized as a symmetry of a world-sheet action. Axion-dilaton duality (S duality), a conjectured nonperturbative SL(2,Z) symmetry of the same theory, plays an analogous role for five-branes. We describe a soliton spectrum possessing both duality symmetries and ...
متن کاملParticle-Vortex Duality from 3D Bosonization
We show how particle-vortex duality in d 1⁄4 2þ 1 dimensions arises as part of an intricate web of relationships between different field theories. The starting point is “bosonization,” a conjectured duality that uses flux attachment to transmute the statistics of relativistic particles. From this seed, we derive many old and new dualities. These include particle-vortex duality for bosons as wel...
متن کاملSeiberg Duality in Chern-Simons Theories with Fundamental and Adjoint Matter
We explore the dynamics of three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theories with N = 2 supersymmetry and matter in the fundamental and adjoint representations of the gauge group. Realizing the gauge theories of interest in a setup of threebranes and fivebranes in type IIB string theory we argue for a Seiberg duality that relates Chern-Simons theories with non-trivial superpotentials.
