The BPS Spectrum of N = 2 SU ( N ) SYM and Parton
نویسنده
چکیده
We apply ideas that have appeared in the study of D-branes on Calabi-Yau compactifications to the derivation of the BPS spectrum of field theories. In particular, we identify an orbifold point whose fractional branes can be thought of as “partons” of the BPS spectrum of N = 2 pure SU(N) SYM. We derive the BPS spectrum and lines of marginal stability branes near that orbifold, and compare our results with the spectrum of the field theories.

Long Range Forces and Supersymmetric Bound States
We consider the long range forces between two BPS particles on the Coulomb branch of N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric gauge theories. The 1/r potential is unambiguously fixed, even at strong coupling, by the moduli dependence of central charges supported by the BPS states. The effective Coulombic coupling vanishes on marginal stability curves, while sign changes on crossing these curves explain the r...
متن کاملFinite - size effects in the superconformal β - deformed N = 4 SYM
We study finite size effects for composite operators in the SU(2) sector of the superconformal β-deformed N = 4 SYM theory. In particular we concentrate on the spectrum of one single magnon. Since in this theory one-impurity states are non BPS we compute their anomalous dimensions including wrapping contributions up to four loops and discuss higher order effects. ∗[email protected]...
متن کاملAdS 5 × S 5 and higher spin holography
We derive the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein descendants of string excitations on AdS5 × S5. String states are organized in long multiplets of the AdS supergroup SU(2, 2|4) with a rich pattern of shortenings at the higher spin enhancement point λ = 0. The string states holographically dual to the higher spin currents of SYM theory in the strict zero coupling limit are identified together with the cor...
متن کاملOn stringy AdS 5 × S 5 and higher spin holography
We derive the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein descendants of string excitations on AdS5 × S5. String states are organized in long multiplets of the AdS supergroup SU(2, 2|4,R) with a rich pattern of shortenings at the higher spin enhancement point λ = 0. The string states holographically dual to the higher spin currents of SYM theory in the strict zero coupling limit are identified together with the c...
متن کاملOn The Strong-Coupling Spectrum of Pure SU(3) Seiberg-Witten Theory
We consider the two complex dimensional moduli space of supersymmetric vacua for low energy effective N = 2 SYM with gauge group SU(3). We describe, at the topological level, a consistent model of how the relevant curves of marginal stability (CMS) intertwine with the branch cuts to partition the moduli space into pieces carrying different BPS spectra. At strong coupling we find connected cores...
