چکیده

Starting from the Maldacena-Nunez supergravity dual of N = 1 super Yang-Mills theory we study the inclusion of a supersymmetry breaking gaugino mass term. We consider a class of non supersymmetric deformations of the MN solutions which have been recently proposed in the literature. We show that they can be interpreted as corresponding to the inclusion of both a mass and a condensate. We calculate the vacuum energy of the supergravity solutions showing that the Nc-fold vacuum degeneracy of the N = 1 theory is lifted by the inclusion of a mass term.

Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory

We study the spectrum of the softly broken generalized Veneziano-Yankielowicz effective action for N = 1 SUSY Yang-Mills theory. Two dual formulations of the effective action are given. The spurion method is used for the soft SUSY breaking. Masses of the bound states are calculated and mixing patterns are discussed. Mass splittings of pure gluonic states are consistent with predictions of conve...

A Test of the AdS/CFT Duality on the Coulomb Branch

We consider the N = 4 SU(N) Super Yang Mills theory on the Coulomb branch with gauge symmetry broken to S(U(N1)×U(N2)). By integrating the W particles, the effective action near the IR SU(Ni) conformal fixed points is seen to be a deformation of the Super Yang Mills theory by a non-renormalized, irrelevant, dimension 8 operator. The correction to the two-point function of the dilaton field dual...

Gauge-gravity correspondence in de Sitter braneworld

We study the braneworld solutions based on a solvable model of 5d gauged supergravity with two scalars of conformal dimension three, which correspond to bilinear operators of fermions in the dual N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory on the boundary. An accelerating braneworld solution is obtained when both scalars are taken as the form of deformations of the super Yang-Mills theory and the bulk supers...

Perturbative and non-perturbative aspects of pure N = 1 super Yang-Mills theory from wrapped branes

The Maldacena-Nuñez solution is generalized to include a number of integration constants, one of which controls the resolution of the singularity of the wrapped D5-brane background. Some features of the dual pure N = 1 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory are calculated, amongst which the gluino condensate, the beta function of the gauge coupling and a brane probe potential, which is related to the Ve...

A note on the dual of N = 1 super Yang - Mills theory

We refine the dictionary of the gauge/gravity correspondence realizing N = 1 super Yang-Mills by means of D5-branes wrapped on a resolved Calabi-Yau space. This is done by fixing an ambiguity on the correct interpretation of the holographic dual of the running gauge coupling and amounts to identify a specific 2-cycle in the dual ten-dimensional supergravity background. In doing so, we also disc...
