SYM RG Scale as Modulus for WDVV Equations
نویسنده
چکیده
We derive a new set of WDVV equations for N = 2 SYM in which the renormalization scale Λ is identified with the distinguished modulus which naturally arises in topological field theories.

Beta Function , C – Theorem and WDVV Equations in 4 D N = 2 SYM
We show that the exact beta–function of 4D N = 2 SYM plays the role of the inverse of the metric in the WDVV–like equations F ikl β lm F mnj = F jkl β lm F mni. The conjecture that the WDVV–like equations are equivalent to the identity between the u–modulus and the prepotential F , seen as a superconformal anomaly, sheds light on the recently considered C–theorem for the N = 2 SYM field theories.
متن کاملRG Flow Irreversibility , C - Theorem and Topological Nature of 4 D N = 2 SYM
We determine the exact beta function and a RG flow Lyapunov function for N = 2 SYM with gauge group SU(n). It turns out that the classical discriminants of the Seiberg–Witten curves determine the RG potential. The radial irreversibility of the RG flow in the SU(2) case and the non–perturbative identity relating the u–modulus and the superconformal anomaly, indicate the existence of a four dimen...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
This paper studies the dual form of Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde (WDVV) equations in N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory by applying a duality transformation to WDVV equations. The dual WDVV equations called in this paper are non-linear differential equations satisfied by dual prepotential and are found to have the same form with the original WDVV equations. However, in contrast with t...
متن کاملSymmetries of WDVV equations
We say that a function F (τ) obeys WDVV equations, if for a given invertible symmetric matrix η and all τ ∈ T ⊂ R, the expressions c α β γ(τ) = η cλβγ(τ) = η∂λ∂β∂γF can be considered as structure constants of commutative associative algebra; the matrix ηαβ inverse to η αβ determines an invariant scalar product on this algebra. A function x(z, τ) obeying ∂α∂βx (z, τ) = zc ε α β∂εx (z, τ) is call...
متن کاملHolographic Renormalization Group
The holographic renormalization group (RG) is reviewed in a self-contained manner. The holographic RG is based on the idea that the radial coordinate of a space-time with asymptotically AdS geometry can be identified with the RG flow parameter of the boundary field theory. After briefly discussing basic aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence, we explain how the notion of the holographic RG comes...
