Effective Lagrangian for 3d N = 4 Sym Theories for Any Gauge Group and Monopole Moduli Spaces

چکیده
We construct low energy effective Lagrangians for 3d N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with any gauge group. They represent supersymmetric σ models at hyper–Kählerian manifolds of dimension 4r (r is the rang of the group). In the asymptotic region, perturbatively exact explicit expression for the metric are written. We establish the relationship of this metric with the TAUB-NUT metric describing the perturbatively exact effective Lagrangians for unitary groups and monopole moduli spaces: the former is obtained out of the latter by a proper hyper–Kählerian reduction. We describe in details the reduction procedure for SO/Sp/G2 gauge groups, where it can also be given a natural interpretation in D-brane language. We conjecture that the exact nonperturbative metrics can be obtained by a similar hyper–Kählerian reduction from the corresponding multidimensional Atiyah–Hitchin metrics. ∗on leave of absence from ITEP, Moscow, Russia.

Three-Dimensional Gauge Theories and ADE Monopoles
We study three-dimensional N = 4 gauge theories with product gauge groups constructed from ADE Dynkin diagrams. One-loop corrections to the metric on the Coulomb branch are shown to coincide with the metric on the moduli space of wellseperated ADE monopoles. We propose that this correspondence is exact. Introduction There exists a correspondence between three-dimensional gauge theories and mono...
متن کاملInstantons, Three Dimensional Gauge Theories, and Monopole Moduli Spaces
We calculate instanton corrections to three dimensional gauge theories with N = 4 and N = 8 supersymmetry and SU(n) gauge groups. The N = 4 results give new information about the moduli space of n BPS SU(2) monopoles, including the leading order non-pairwise interaction terms. A few comments are made on the relationship of the N = 8 results to membrane scattering in matrix theory.

We study the phase structure of four-dimensional N = 1 super Yang-Mills theories realized on D6-branes wrapping the RP of a Z2 orbifold of the deformed conifold. The non-trivial fundamental group of RP allows for the gauge group to be broken to various product groups by Z2 Wilson lines. We study the classical moduli space of theories in various pictures related by dualities including an M-theor...
متن کاملModuli spaces of Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories
We analyse the classical moduli spaces of supersymmetric vacua of 3d N = 2 Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories. We show quite generally that the moduli space of the 3d theory always contains a baryonic branch of a parent 4d N = 1 quiver gauge theory, where the 4d baryonic branch is determined by the vector of 3d Chern-Simons levels. In particular, starting with a 4d quiver theory dual to a 3-fol...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Gauge Theories and Monopoles
The coulomb branch of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills gauge theories in d = 2 + 1 is studied. A direct connection between gauge theories and monopole moduli spaces is presented. It is proposed that the hyper-Kähler metric of supersymmetric N = 4 SU(N) Yang-Mills theory is given by the charge N centered moduli space of BPS monopoles in SU(2). The theory is compared to N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-M...
