Conformal Field Theories on K3 and Three-Dimensional Gauge Theories
According to a recent conjecture, the moduli space of the heterotic conformal field theory on a G ⊂ ADE singularity of an ALE space is equivalent to the moduli space of a pure N = 4 supersymmetric three-dimensional gauge theory with gauge group G. We establish this relation using geometric engineering of heterotic strings and generalize it to theories with non-trivial matter content.
متن کاملTopological Conformal Field Theories and Gauge Theories
This paper gives a construction, using heat kernels, of differential forms on the moduli space of metrised ribbon graphs, or equivalently on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with boundary. The construction depends on a manifold with a bundle of Frobenius algebras, satisfying various conditions. These forms satisfy gluing conditions which mean they form an open topological conformal field th...
متن کاملThree dimensional Conformal Field Theories from Sasakian seven-manifolds
We present the construction of the candidate conformal field theories dual to AdS4 non-maximally supersymmetric compactifications of 11D supergravity. We compare the spectra of the two theories and discuss the realization of the baryonic symmetries. Finally we comment the presence in the spectrum of long multiplets with rational energies, trying to explain their existence.
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Gauge Theories and ADE Monopoles
We study three-dimensional N = 4 gauge theories with product gauge groups constructed from ADE Dynkin diagrams. One-loop corrections to the metric on the Coulomb branch are shown to coincide with the metric on the moduli space of wellseperated ADE monopoles. We propose that this correspondence is exact. Introduction There exists a correspondence between three-dimensional gauge theories and mono...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Gauge Theories and Monopoles
The coulomb branch of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills gauge theories in d = 2 + 1 is studied. A direct connection between gauge theories and monopole moduli spaces is presented. It is proposed that the hyper-Kähler metric of supersymmetric N = 4 SU(N) Yang-Mills theory is given by the charge N centered moduli space of BPS monopoles in SU(2). The theory is compared to N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-M...
