00 1 An N T = 4 equivariant extension of the novel topological model in D
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that the novel topological twist of N = 4, D = 3 Yang–Mills theory constructed by Blau and Thompson can be regarded, formally, as a deformation of the NT = 2, D = 4 Vafa–Witten theory after a dimensional reduction to D = 3.

Aspects of N T ≥ 2 Topological Gauge Theories and D-branes
We comment on various aspects of topological gauge theories possessing N T ≥ 2 topological symmetry: 1. We show that the construction of Vafa-Witten and Dijkgraaf-Moore of 'bal-anced' topological field theories is equivalent to an earlier construction in terms of N T = 2 superfields inspired by supersymmetric quantum mechanics. 2. We explain the relation between topological field theories calcu...

Let G be a finite group. For a based G-space X and a Mackey functor M , a topological Mackey functor X e ⊗M is constructed. When X is a based G-CW complex, X e ⊗M is shown to be an infinite loop space in the sense of G-spaces. This gives a version of the RO(G)-graded equivariant Dold-Thom theorem. Applying a variant of Elmendorf’s construction, we get a model for the Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectrum...
متن کاملModeling of Infinite Divisible Distributions Using Invariant and Equivariant Functions
Basu’s theorem is one of the most elegant results of classical statistics. Succinctly put, the theorem says: if T is a complete sufficient statistic for a family of probability measures, and V is an ancillary statistic, then T and V are independent. A very novel application of Basu’s theorem appears recently in proving the infinite divisibility of certain statistics. In addition ...
متن کاملTwisted N = 2 Supersymmetry with Central Charge and Equivariant Cohomology
We present an equivariant extension of the Thom form with respect to a vector field action, in the framework of the Mathai-Quillen formalism. The associated Topological Quantum Field Theories correspond to twisted N = 2 supersymmetric theories with a central charge. We analyze in detail two different cases: topological sigma models and non-abelian monopoles on four-manifolds.
متن کاملNovel Axial Flux Brushless Resolver Analysis and Optimization Using 3D Finite Element and d-q Model Method
Resolvers are widely used in electric driven systems especially in high precision servomechanisms. Both encapsulated and pancake resolvers suffer from a major drawback: static eccentricity (SE). This drawback causes a significant increase in resolver output position error (RPE) which could not be corrected electronically. To reduce RPE, this paper proposes a novel structure with axial flux. Pr...
