Vacuum Structure and Spectrum of N=2 Supersymmetric SU(n) Gauge Theory.

چکیده
We present an exact description of the metric on the moduli space of vacua and the spectrum of massive states for four dimensional N = 2 supersymmetric SU(n) gauge theories. The moduli space of quantum vacua is identified with the moduli space of a special set of genus n − 1 hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. 11.15.-q, 11.30.Pb Typeset using REVTEX

Non Supersymmetric Metastable Vacua in N = 2 Sym Softly Broken to N = 1
We find non-supersymmetric metastable vacua in four dimensional N = 2 gauge theories softly broken to N = 1 by a superpotential term. First we study the simplest case, namely the SU (2) gauge theory without flavors. We study the spectrum and lifetime of the metastable vacuum and possible embeddings of the model in UV complete theories. Then we consider larger gauge group theories with flavors. ...
متن کاملMore on Softly Broken N = 2 Qcd
We extend previous work on the soft breaking of N = 2 supersymmetric QCD. We present the formalism for the breaking due to a dilaton spurion for a general gauge group and obtain the exact effective potential. We obtain some general features of the vacuum structure in the pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theory and we also derive a general mass formula for this class of theories, in particular we present e...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Gauge Theories with Classical Groups via M Theory Fivebrane
We study the moduli space of vacua of four dimensional N = 1 and N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories with the gauge groups Sp(2Nc), SO(2Nc) and SO(2Nc + 1) using the M theory fivebrane. Higgs branches of the N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories are interpreted in terms of the M theory fivebrane and the type IIA s-rule is realized in it. In particular we construct the fivebrane configuration whic...
متن کاملColor Superconductivity in N = 2 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories
We study vacuum structure of N = 2 supersymmetric (SUSY) QCD, based on the gauge group SU(2) with Nf = 2 flavors of massive hypermultiplet quarks, in the presence of non-zero baryon chemical potential (μ). The theory has a classical vacuum preserving baryon number symmetry, when a mass term, which breaks N = 2 SUSY but preserves N = 1 SUSY, for the adjoint gauge chiral multiplet (mad) is introd...
متن کاملOn the Monodromies of N=2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
We review the generalization of the work of Seiberg and Witten on N = 2 supersymmetric SU (2) Yang-Mills theory to SU (n) gauge groups. The quantum moduli spaces of the effective low energy theory parametrize a special family of hyperelliptic genus n−1 Riemann surfaces. We discuss the massless spectrum and the monodromies.
