SUPERFIELD DESCRIPTION OF A SELF-DUAL SUPERGRAVITY a la MACDOWELL-MANSOURI
Using MacDowell-Mansouri theory, in this work, we investigate a superfield description of the self-dual supergravity a la Ashtekar. We find that in order to reproduce previous results on supersymmetric Ashtekar formalism, it is necessary to properly combine the supersymmetric field-strength in the Lagrangian. We argue that our procedure can be extended to the case of supersymmetric Ashtekar for...
متن کاملSelf-Dual Supergravity and Twistor Theory
By generalizing and extending some of the earlier results derived by Manin and by Merkulov, a twistor description is given of four-dimensional N -extended (gauged) self-dual supergravity with and without cosmological constant. Starting from the category of (4|4N )-dimensional complex superconformal supermanifolds, the categories of (4|2N )-dimensional complex quaternionic, quaternionic Kähler a...
متن کاملDlcq-m(atrix) Description of String Theory, and Supergravity
We discuss the connection between Matrix string theory and the DLCQ of string theory. Using this connection we describe the sense in which perturbative string amplitudes are reproduced in the Matrix string theory. Using recent realization of the connection between SYM and Supergravity, we suggest how to describe Matrix theory with non-flat backgrounds.
متن کاملThe supergravity dual of a theory with dynamical supersymmetry breaking
We study the large N limit of a little string theory that reduces in the IR to U(N) N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills with Chern Simons coupling k. Witten has shown that this field theory preserves supersymmetry if k ≥ N/2 and he conjectured that it breaks supersymmetry if k < N/2. We find a non-singular solution that describes the k = N/2 case, which is confining. We argue that increasing k corr...
متن کاملThe Supergravity Dual of N = 1 Super Yang - Mills Theory
We find an exact, N = 1 supersymmetric kink solution of 5d gauged supergravity. We associate this solution with the RG flow from N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory, deformed by a relevant operator, to pure N = 1 super Yang-Mills in the IR. We test this identification by computing various QFT quantities using the supergravity dual: the tension of electric and magnetic strings and the gaugino condensa...
