New N=2 Superconformal Field Theories in Four Dimensions
New examples of N=2 supersymmetric conformal field theories are found as fixed points of SU(2) N=2 supersymmetric QCD. Relations among the scaling dimensions of their relevant chiral operators, global symmetries, and Higgs branches are understood in terms of the general structure of relevant deformations of non-trivial N=2 conformal field theories. The spectrum of scaling dimensions found are a...
متن کاملNew Superconformal Field Theories in Four Dimensions and N = 1 Duality
Recently, developments in the understanding of low-energy N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theory have revealed two important phenomena: the appearance of new four-dimensional superconformal field theories and a non-Abelian generalization of electric-magnetic duality at the IR fixed point. This report is a pedagogical introduction to these phenomena. After presenting some necessary background materia...
متن کاملA Relation Between N=8 Gauge Theories in Three Dimensions
We show that three-dimensional N=8 Sp(N) and SO(2N + 1) gauge theories flow to the same strong coupling fixed point. As a consequence, the corresponding orientifold two-planes in type IIA string theory are described at strong coupling and low-energies by the same M theory background. In the large N limit, these assertions are confirmed by studying discrete torsion in the supergravity theory cor...
متن کاملNew N=1 Superconformal Field Theories and Their Supergravity Description
In this note we construct a new class of superconformal field theories as mass deformed N = 4 super Yang-Mills theories. We will argue that these theories correspond to the fixed points which were recently found [1] studying the deformations of the dual IIB string theory on AdS5 × S . ∗[email protected] ∗2 [email protected] ∗[email protected]
متن کاملSuperconformal Theories in Six Dimensions
This thesis consists of an introductory text, which is divided into two parts, and six appended research papers. The first part contains a general discussion on conformal and superconformal symmetry in six dimensions, and treats how the corresponding transformations act on space-time and superspace fields. We specialize to the case with chiral (2, 0) supersymmetry. A formalism is presented for ...
