Solutions of Four-dimensional Field Theories via M Theory

چکیده
N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions are studied by formulating them as the quantum field theories derived from configurations of fourbranes, fivebranes, and sixbranes in Type IIA superstrings, and then reinterpreting those configurations in M theory. This approach leads to explicit solutions for the Coulomb branch of a large family of four-dimensional N = 2 field theories with zero or negative beta function.

Spherically Symmetric Solutions in a New Braneworld Massive Gravity Theory
In this paper, a combination of the braneworld scenario and covariant de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) massive Gravity theory is proposed. In this setup, the five-dimensional bulk graviton is considered to be massive. The five dimensional nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity theory affects the 3-brane dynamics and the gravitational potential on the brane. Following the solutions with spherical s...
متن کاملKähler Potential and Higher Derivative Terms from M Theory
The construction of four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories via the fivebrane of M theory wrapped around a Riemann surface has been successfully applied to the computation of holomorphic quantities of field theory. In this paper we compute non-holomorphic quantities in the eleven dimensional supergravity limit of M theory. While the Kähler potential on the Coulomb of N = 2 theories is co...
متن کاملExact four-dimensional dyonic black holes and Bertotti-Robinson spacetimes in string theory.
Conformal field theories corresponding to two–dimensional electrically charged black holes and to two–dimensional anti–de Sitter space with a covariantly constant electric field are simply constructed as SL(2, IR)/ZZ WZW coset models. The two–dimensional electrically charged black holes are related by Kaluza–Klein reduction to the 2+1–dimensional rotating black hole of Bañados, Teitelboim and Z...
متن کاملیادداشتی بر دوگانی AdS/CFT
We study duality of field theories in (d+1) dimensional flat Euclidean space and (d+1) dimensional Euclidean AdS space for both scalar the and vector fields. In the case of the scalar theory, the injective map between conformally coupled massless scalars in two spaces is reviewed. It is shown that for vector fields the injective map exists only in four dimensions. Since Euclidean AdS space is e...
متن کاملSupersymmetric AdS3 solutions of type IIB supergravity
For every positively curved Kähler-Einstein manifold in four dimensions we construct an infinite family of supersymmetric solutions of type IIB supergravity. The solutions are warped products of AdS3 with a compact seven-dimensional manifold and have non-vanishing five-form flux. Via the AdS/CFT correspondence, the solutions are dual to two-dimensional conformal field theories with (0, 2) super...
