Gravitational F-terms of SO/Sp gauge theories and anomalies

چکیده

We study the first non trivial gravitational corrections to the F-terms of N = 1 SYM SO/Sp gauge theories, with matter in some representations, by using the generalized Konishi anomaly method. We derive equations at genus one for the operators in the chiral ring and compare them with the loop equations of the corresponding matrix models, finding agreement. We find that for adjoint representation the genus 0 contributions to such corrections can be adsorbed by a field redefinition; remarkably, this is not the case for matter in the (anti-)symmetric representation of (Sp) SO.

Gauge symmetries and holographic anomalies of Chern-Simons and transgression AdS gravity

We review the issue of gauge and gravitational anomalies with backgrounds, offering a new outlook on some aspects of these questions. We compute the holographic anomalies of hypothetical theories dual, in the sense of the AdS-CFT correspondence, to Chern-Simons AdS gravity. Those anomalies are either gauge anomalies, associated to the AdS gauge group of the theory, or diffeomorphism anomalies, ...

Anomaly-Free Supersymmetric Models in Six Dimensions

The conditions for the cancellation of all gauge, gravitational, and mixed anomalies of N = 1 supersymmetric models in six dimensions are reviewed and illustrated by a number of examples. Of particular interest are models that cannot be realized perturbatively in string theory. An example of this type, which we verify satisfies the anomaly cancellation conditions, is the K3 compactification of ...

Higher-spin Gauge and Trace Anomalies in Two-dimensional Backgrounds

Two-dimensional quantum fields in electric and gravitational backgrounds can be described by conformal field theories, and hence all the physical (covariant) quantities can be written in terms of the corresponding holomorphic quantities. In this paper, we first derive relations between covariant and holomorphic forms of higher-spin currents in these backgrounds, and then, by using these relatio...

Non-analyticities in Three-dimensional Gauge Theories

Quantum fluctuations generate in three-dimensional gauge theories not only radiative corrections to the Chern-Simons coupling but also non-analytic terms in the effective action. We review the role of those terms in gauge theories with massless fermions and Chern-Simons theories. The explicit form of non-analytic terms turns out to be dependent on the regularization scheme and in consequence th...
