Deconfinement at the Argyres - Douglas point in SU ( 2 ) gauge theory with broken N = 2 supersymmetry

We consider chiral condensates in SU(2) gauge theory with broken N= 2 super-symmetry. The matter sector contains an adjoint multiplet and one fundamental flavor. Matter and gaugino condensates are determined by integrating out the ad-joint field. The only nonperturbative input is the Affleck-Dine-Seiberg (ADS) super-potential generated by one instanton plus the Konishi anomaly. These results are consistent with those obtained by the 'integrating in' procedure, including a reproduction of the Seiberg-Witten curve from the ADS superpotential. We then calculate monopole, dyon, and charge condensates using the Seiberg-Witten approach. We show that the monopole and charge condensates vanish at the Argyres-Douglas point where the monopole and charge vacua collide. We interpret this phenomenon as a deconfine-ment of electric and magnetic charges at the Argyres-Douglas point.
