Topological Gauge Theory and Twistors
By use of harmonic superfields, Witten’s topological gauge theory is written as a field theory on a supertwistor space. Further, using the realisation of complex compactified Minkowski space as a quadric in CP , we show that the theory has a simple formulation in terms of analytic superfields on super-CP 5 ×CP . This research was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy
متن کاملA Mathematical Theory of the Topological Vertex
We have developed a mathematical theory of the topological vertex— a theory that was originally proposed by M. Aganagic, A. Klemm, M. Mariño, and C. Vafa on effectively computing Gromov-Witten invariants of smooth toric Calabi-Yau threefolds derived from duality between open string theory of smooth Calabi-Yau threefolds and Chern-Simons theory on three manifolds.
متن کاملTopological M-Strings and Supergroup WZW Models
We study the boundary conditions in topologically twisted Chern-Simons matter theories with the Lie 3-algebraic structure. We find that the supersymmetric boundary conditions and the gauge invariant boundary conditions can be unified as complexified gauge invariant boundary conditions which lead to supergroup WZW models. We propose that the low-energy effective field theories on the two-dimensi...
متن کاملGauge theory of topological phases of matter
We study the response of quantum many-body systems to coupling some of their degrees of freedom to external gauge fields. This serves to understand the current Green functions and transport properties of interacting many-body systems. Our analysis leads to a “gauge theory of states of matter” complementary to the well-known Landau theory of order parameters. We illustrate the power of our appro...
متن کاملTopological susceptibility in SU(3) gauge theory.
We compute the topological susceptibility for the SU(3) Yang-Mills theory by employing the expression of the topological charge density operator suggested by Neuberger's fermions. In the continuum limit we find r(4)(0)chi = 0.059(3), which corresponds to chi = (191 +/- 5 MeV)(4) if F(K) is used to set the scale. Our result supports the Witten-Veneziano explanation for the large mass of the eta(').
