چکیده
The five-dimensional supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory is studied in the framework of the relativistic Toda chain. This equation can be embedded in two-dimensional Toda lattice hierarchy. This system has the conjugate structure. This conjugate structure corresponds to the charge conjugation.

Whitham Deformations of Seiberg-Witten Curves for Classical Gauge Groups
Gorsky et al. presented an explicit construction of Whitham deformations of the Seiberg-Witten curve for the SU(N+1) N = 2 SUSY Yang-Mills theory. We extend their result to all classical gauge groups and some other cases such as the spectral curve of the A (2) 2N affine Toda Toda system. Our construction, too, uses fractional powers of the superpotential W (x) that characterizes the curve. We a...
متن کامل2 4 Se p 20 02 On the Whitham Hierarchies : Reductions and Hodograph Solutions ∗
A general scheme for analyzing reductions of Whitham hierarchies is presented. It is based on a method for determining the S-function by means of a system of first order partial differential equations. Compatibility systems of differential equations characterizing both reductions and hodograph solutions of Whitham hierarchies are obtained. The method is illustrated by exhibiting solutions of in...
متن کاملPicard-Fuchs Equation and Prepotential of Five Dimensional SUSY Gauge Theory Compactified on a Circle
Five dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory compactified on a circle defines an effective N = 2 supersymmetric theory for massless fields in four dimensions. Based on the relativistic Toda chain Hamiltonian proposed by Nekrasov, we derive the Picard-Fuchs equation on the moduli space of the Coulomb branch of SU(2) gauge theory. Our Picard-Fuchs equation agrees with those from other approaches;...
متن کاملIntegrable Models, Susy Gauge Theories and String Theory
We consider the close relation between duality in N = 2 SUSY gauge theories and integrable models. Various integrable models ranging from Toda lattices, Calogero models, spinning tops, and spin chains are related to the quantum moduli space of vacua of N = 2 SUSY gauge theories. In particular, SU(3) gauge theories with two flavors of massless quarks in the fundamental representation can be rela...

The factorization problem of the multi-component 2D Toda hierarchy is used to analyze the dispersionless limit of this hierarchy. A dispersive version of the Whitham hierarchy defined in terms of scalar Lax and Orlov–Schulman operators is introduced and the corresponding additional symmetries and string equations are discussed. Then, it is shown how KP and Toda pictures of the dispersionless Wh...
