S-Duality and the Dyon Spectrum in N = 2 Super Yang-Mills Theory
We study the dyon spectrum in N = 2 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(2) coupled to Nf matter multiplets in the fundamental representation. For magnetic charge one and two we determine the spectrum explicitly and show that it is in agreement with the duality predictions of Seiberg and Witten. We briefly discuss the extension to higher charge monopoles for the self-dual Nf = 4 case and...
متن کاملWrapped fivebranes and N = 2 super Yang – Mills theory
We construct D = 10 supergravity solutions corresponding to type IIB fivebranes wrapping a two-sphere in a Calabi–Yau two-fold. These are related in the IR to the large N limit of pure N = 2 SU(N) super Yang–Mills theory. We show that the singularities in the IR correspond to the wrapped branes being distributed on a ring. We analyse the dynamics of a probe fivebrane and show that it incorporat...
متن کاملU - Duality and BPS Spectrum of Super Yang - Mills Theory and M - Theory
It is shown that the BPS spectrum of Super-Yang-Mills theory on T d ×R, which fits into representations of the U-duality group for M-theory compactified on T d , in accordance with the matrix-theory conjecture, in fact fits into representations of the U-duality group for M-theory on T d+1 , with the extra dualities realised as generalised Nahm transformations. The spectrum of BPS M-branes is an...
متن کاملExtended N = 1 super Yang - Mills theory
dθTrV (X)W Wα. When W = 0, the model reduces to the extended Seiberg-Witten theory recently studied by Marshakov and Nekrasov. We use two different points of view: a “macroscopic” approach, using generalized anomaly equations, the Dijkgraaf-Vafa matrix model and the glueball superpotential; and the recently proposed “microscopic” approach, using Nekrasov’s sum over colored partitions and the qu...
متن کاملThe Plane-Wave/Super Yang-Mills Duality
We present a self-contained review of the Plane-wave/super-Yang-Mills duality, which states that strings on a plane-wave background are dual to a particular large R-charge sector of N = 4, D = 4 superconformal U(N) gauge theory. This duality is a specification of the usual AdS/CFT correspondence in the “Penrose limit”. The Penrose limit of AdS5 × S leads to the maximally supersymmetric ten dime...
