Phases of N = 1 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories with Flavors
We explore the phases of N = 1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories with fundamental matter that arise as deformations of N = 2 SQCD by the addition of a superpotential for the adjoint chiral multiplet. As the parameters in the superpotential are varied, the vacua of this theory sweep out various branches, which in some cases have multiple semiclassical limits. In such limits, we recover the vacu...
متن کاملFlavors in the microscopic approach to N = 1 gauge theories
In this note, we solve an extended version of the N = 1 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group U(N), an adjoint chiral multiplet and Nf flavors of quarks, by using the N = 1 microscopic formalism based on Nekrasov’s sums over colored partitions. Our main new result is the computation of the general mesonic operators. We prove that the generalized Konishi anomaly equations with flavors are sat...
متن کاملInfrared saturation and phases of gauge theories with BRST symmetry
We investigate the infrared limit of the quantum equation of motion of the gauge boson propagator in various gauges and models with a BRST symmetry. We find that the saturation of this equation at low momenta distinguishes between the Coulomb, Higgs and confining phase of the gauge theory. The Coulomb phase is characterized by a massless gauge boson. Physical states contribute to the saturation...
متن کاملHot gauge theories and ZN phases.
In this paper the several aspects of the ZN symmetry in gauge theories at high temperatures are discussed. The metastable ZN bubbles in the SU(N) gauge theories with fermions may have, generically, unacceptable thermodynamic behavior. Their free energy F ∝ T 4 with a positive proportionality constant. This leads not only to negative pressure but also to negative specific heat and, more seriousl...
متن کاملOn Mixed Phases in Gauge Theories
In many gauge theories at different values of parameters entering Lagrangian, the vacuum is dominated by coherent condensates of different mutually non-local fields (for instance, by condensates of electric or magnetic charges, or by various dyons). It is argued that the transition between these ”dual to each other” phases proceeds through an intermediate ”mixed phase”, having qualitatively dif...
