چکیده

Using geometric engineering method of 4D N = 2 quiver gauge theories and results on the classification of Kac-Moody (KM) algebras, we show on explicit examples that there exist three sectors of N = 2 infrared CFT4s. Since the geometric engineering of these CFT4s involve type II strings on K3 fibered CY3 singularities, we conjecture the existence of three kinds of singular complex surfaces containing, in addition to the two standard classes, a third indefinite set. To illustrate this hypothesis, we give explicit examples of K3 surfaces with H3 and E10 hyperbolic singularities. We also derive a hierarchy of indefinite complex algebraic geometries based on affine Ar and T(p,q,r) algebras going beyond the hyperbolic subset. Such hierarchical surfaces have a remarkable signature that is manifested by the presence of poles.

N = 4 Supersymmetric Gauge Theory in the Derivative Expansion

Maximally supersymmetric gauge theories have experienced renewed interest due to the AdS/CFT correspondence and its conjectured S-duality. These gauge theories possess a large amount of symmetry and have quasi-integrable properties. We derive the amplitudes in the derivative expansion of the spontaneously broken examples and perform all loop integrations. The S-matrix is found via an algebraic ...

On Inherited Duality in N = 1 d = 4 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories Philip

Four-dimensional N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories with two adjoints and a quartic superpotential are believed, from AdS/CFT duality, to have SL(2,Z) invariance. In this note we review an old, unpublished argument for this property, based solely on field theory. The technique involves a complexified flavor rotation which deforms an N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory with matter to an N = 1 the...

Cubic couplings in D Ä 6 , N Ä 4 b supergravity on AdS 3 Ã S

The AdS–conformal field theory correspondence provides information about the strong coupling behavior of some conformal field theories by studying their supergravity ~string! duals @1–4#. In particular, the AdS-CFT duality relates type IIB string theory on AdS33S 3M, where M is either K3 or T, to a certain N5(4,4) supersymmetric twodimensional conformal field theory ~CFT! living on the boundary...

Instantons and Non-renormalisation in AdS/CFT

The series of perturbative fluctuations around a multi-instanton contribution to a specific class of correlation functions of supercurrents in N = 4 supersymmetric SU(N) Yang–Mills theory is examined in the light of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Subject to certain plausible assumptions, we argue that a given term in the 1/N expansion in such a background receives only a finite number of perturbat...

Current correlators in the Coulomb branch of N = 4 SYM

We study correlators of R-symmetry currents in the Coulomb branch of N = 4 supersymmetric gauge theory in the large-N limit, using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular, we consider gauge fields in the presence of gravity and scalar fields parameterizing the coset SL(6, IR)/SO(6) in the context of five-dimensional gauged supergravity. From a ten-dimensional point of view these backgrounds c...
