Comments on Quiver Gauge Theories and Matrix Models

چکیده
Dijkgraaf and Vafa have conjectured the correspondences between topological string theories, N = 1 gauge theories and matrix models. By the use of this conjecture, we calculate the quantum deformations of Calabi-Yau threefolds with ADE singularities from ADE multi-matrix models. We obtain the effective superpotentials of the dual quiver gauge theories in terms of the geometric engineering for the deformed geometries. We find the Veneziano-Yankielowicz terms in the effective superpotentials. December 2002 † [email protected]

N = 1 Supersymmetry , Deconstruction and Bosonic Gauge Theories
We show how the full holomorphic geometry of local Calabi-Yau threefold compacti-fications with N = 1 supersymmetry can be obtained from matrix models. In particular for the conifold geometry we relate F-terms to the general amplitudes of c = 1 non-critical bosonic string theory, and express them in a quiver or, equivalently, super matrix model. Moreover we relate, by deconstruction, the uncomp...
متن کاملComments on Anomalies and Charges of Toric-Quiver Duals
We obtain a simple expression for the triangle ‘t Hooft anomalies in quiver gauge theories that are dual to toric Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. We utilize the result and simplify considerably the proof concerning the equivalence of a-maximization and Z-minimization. We also resolve the ambiguity in defining the flavor charges in quiver gauge theories. We then compare coefficients of the triangle a...

Starting from the N = 2 SYM4 quiver theory living on wrapped NiD5 branes around S 2 i spheres of deformed ADE fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds (CY3) and considering deformations using massive vector multiplets, we explicitly build a new class of N = 1 quiver gauge theories. In these models, the quiver gauge group ∏ i U (Ni) is spontaneously broken down to ∏ i SU (Ni) and Kahler deformations are sh...
متن کاملOn Geometry and Matrix Models
We point out two extensions of the relation between matrix models, topological strings and N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories. First, we note that by considering double scaling limits of unitary matrix models one can obtain large N duals of the local CalabiYau geometries that engineer N = 2 gauge theories. In particular, a double scaling limit of the Gross-Witten one-plaquette lattice model gi...
