Dimensional Reduction and Vacuum Structure of Quiver Gauge Theory
We describe the structure of the vacuum states of quiver gauge theories obtained via dimensional reduction over homogeneous spaces, in the explicit example of SU(3)-equivariant dimensional reduction of Yang-Mills-Dirac theory on manifolds of the form M × CP . We pay particular attention to the role of topology of background gauge fields on the internal coset spaces, in this case U(1) magnetic m...
متن کاملDimensional reduction and gauge group reduction in Bianchi-Type cosmology
In this paper we examine in detail the implementation, with its associated difficulties, of the Killing conditions and gauge fixing into the variational principle formulation of Bianchi-Type cosmologies. We address problems raised in the literature concerning the Lagrangian and the Hamiltonian formulations: We prove their equivalence, make clear the role of the Homogeneity Preserving Diffeomorp...
متن کاملUniversality in Two Dimensional Gauge Theory
We discuss two dimensional Yang – Mills theories with massless fermions in arbitrary representations of a gauge group G. It is shown that the physics (spectrum and interactions) of the massive states in such models is independent of the detailed structure of the model, and only depends on the gauge group G and an integer k measuring the total anomaly. The massless physics, which does depend on ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Index Of Three-Dimensional Gauge Theory
In N = 1 super Yang-Mills theory in three spacetime dimensions, with a simple gauge group G and a Chern-Simons interaction of level k, the supersymmetric index Tr (−1)F can be computed by making a relation to a pure Chern-Simons theory or microscopically by an explicit Born-Oppenheimer calculation on a two-torus. The result shows that supersymmetry is unbroken if |k| ≥ h/2 (with h the dual Coxe...
متن کاملTwo-Dimensional Gravity and Nonlinear Gauge Theory
We construct a gauge theory based on nonlinear Lie algebras, which is an extension of the usual gauge theory based on Lie algebras. It is a new approach to generalization of the gauge theory. The two-dimensional gravity is derived from nonlinear Poincaré algebra, which is the new Yang-Mills like formulation of the gravitational theory. As typical examples, we investigate R2 gravity with dynamic...
