Introduction to N = 2 Gauge Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
The goal of this seminar is to understand the Nekrasov partition function introduced by Nekrasov in 2003 [Nek03]. This is a generating function for correlation functions in an N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory, so my goal today is to explain what N = 2 gauge theory is and why we might find it interesting. We begin with the latter question, why is this interesting? There are two intertwined answers.

Non-commutative field theory as a theory including the Lorentz violation can be constructed in two different ways. In the first method, the non-commutative fields are the same as the ordinary ones while the gauge group is restricted to U(n). For example, the symmetry group of standard model in non-commutative space is U(3)×(2)×U(1) which can be reduced to SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1) by two appropriate spo...
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY
The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...

متن کاملIntroduction to S - Duality in N = 2 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories ( A Pedagogical Review of the Work of Seiberg and Witten )
In these notes we attempt to give a pedagogical introduction to the work of Seiberg and Witten on S-duality and the exact results of N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories with and without matter. The first half is devoted to a review of monopoles in gauge theories and the construction of supersymmetric gauge theories. In the second half, we describe the work of Seiberg and Witten. CERN-TH/96-371 ...
