Higgs branch localization of N = 1 theories on S 3 × S 1
We apply the method of Higgs branch localization to the N = 1 supersymmetric partition function on S3 × S1. As a result, we show that it can be written as the product of an elliptic vortex and anti-vortex partition function summed over a finite number of Higgs vacua.
متن کاملHiggs Branch , HyperKähler quotient and duality in SUSY N = 2 Yang – Mills theories
Low–energy limits of N=2 supersymmetric field theories in the Higgs branch are described in terms of a non–linear 4–dimensional σ– model on a hyperKähler target space, classically obtained as a hyper-Kähler quotient of the original flat hypermultiplet space by the gauge group. We review in a pedagogical way this construction, and illustrate it in various examples, with special attention given t...
متن کاملThe Higgs Branch of Impurity Theories
We consider supersymmetric gauge theories with impurities in various dimensions. These systems arise in the study of intersecting branes. Unlike conventional gauge theories, the Higgs branch of an impurity theory can have compact directions. For models with eight supercharges, the Higgs branch is a hyperKähler manifold given by the moduli space of solutions of certain differential equations. Th...
متن کاملLattice-continuum relations for 3d SU(N)+Higgs theories
3d lattice studies have recently attracted a lot of attention, especially in connection with finite temperature field theories. One ingredient in these studies is a perturbative computation of the 2-loop lattice counterterms, which are exact in the continuum limit. We extend previous such results to SU(N) gauge theories with Higgs fields in the fundamental and adjoint representations. The funda...
متن کاملMinimal Higgs Branch for the Breaking of Half of the Supersymmetries in N=2 Supergravity
It is shown that the minimal Higgs sector of a generic N=2 supergravity theory with unbroken N=1 supersymmetry must contain a Higgs hypermultiplet and a vector multiplet. When the multiplets parametrize the quaternionic manifold SO(4, 1)/SO(4), and the special Kähler manifold SU(1, 1)/U(1), respectively, a vanishing vacuum energy with a sliding massive spin 3/2 multiplet is obtained. Potential ...
