Notes on supersymmetric Sp(N) theories with an antisymmetric tensor

چکیده

We study supersymmetric Sp(N) gauge theories with an antisymmetric tensor and degree n+1 tree level superpotential. The generalized Konishi anomaly equations derived in hep-th/0304119 and hep-th/0304138 are used to compute the low energy superpotential of the theory. This is done by imposing a certain integrality condition on the periods of a meromorphic one form. Explicit computations for Sp(2), Sp(4), Sp(6) and Sp(8) with cubic superpotential are done and full agreement with the results of the dynamically generated superpotential approach is found. As a byproduct, we find a very precise map from Sp(N) to a U(N+2n) theory with one adjoint and a degree n+1 tree level superpotential.

Duality in SUSY SU(N) with an Antisymmetric Tensor

We present a dual description for SU (N) supersymmetric gauge theory with an anti-symmetric tensor and fundamentals, and no superpotential. This duality is derived from the dualities of Seiberg. Under a perturbation of the superpotential, the dual theory breaks supersymmetry at tree level. 10/95 One year ago, a remarkable feature of gauge field theories was discovered [1]. Certain N =1 supersym...

Supersymmetric Gauge Theories from Branes and Orientifold Six-planes

We study brane configurations in the presence of orientifold six-planes. After deriving the curves for N = 2 supersymmetric SU(Nc) gauge theories with one flavor in the symmetric or antisymmetric representation and Nf fundamental flavors, we rotate the brane configuration, reducing the supersymmetry to N = 1. For the case of an antisymmetric flavor and less than two fundamental flavors, nonpert...

The Affine Connection of Supersymmetric SO(N)/Sp(N) Theories

We study the covariance properties of the equations satisfied by the generating functions of the chiral operators R and T of supersymmetric SO(N)/Sp(N) theories with symmetric/antisymmetric tensors. It turns out that T is an affine connection. As such it cannot be integrated along cycles on Riemann surfaces. This explains the discrepancies observed by Kraus and Shigemori. Furthermore, by means ...

Deformations of the SUSY SU(5) Theory with an Antisymmetric Tensor

The N=1 supersymmetric gauge SU(5) theory with one antisymmetric tensor, n + 3 fundamentals and n + 4 antifundamentals has dual magnetic theories in the infrared. By introducing extra singlet fields and tree level superpotential terms to the electric SU(5) theories, we are able to make the magnetic dual theories flow to the known SU(n) × SU(2) gauge theories which break supersymmetry dynamicall...

On the Determination of the Dilaton–Antisymmetric Tensor Couplings in Supergravity Theories

A new approach is provided to determine the dilaton–antisymmetric tensor coupling in a supergravity theory by considering the static supersymmetric field configuration around a super extended object, which is consistently formulated in a curved superspace. By this, the corresponding SUSY transformation rules can also be determined for vanishing fermionic fields as well as bosonic fields other t...
