The Seiberg-Witten Differential From M-Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
The form of the Seiberg-Witten differential is derived from the Mtheory approach to N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories by directly imposing the BPS condition for twobranes ending on fivebranes. The BPS condition also implies that the pullback of the Kähler form onto the space part of the twobrane world-volume vanishes.

One-Instanton Test of a Seiberg–Witten Curve from M-theory: the Antisymmetric Representation of SU(N)
One-instanton predictions are obtained from the Seiberg–Witten curve derived from M-theory by Landsteiner and Lopez for the Coulomb branch of N = 2 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory with a matter hypermultiplet in the antisymmetric representation. Since this cubic curve describes a Riemann surface that is non-hyperelliptic, a systematic perturbation expansion about a hyperelliptic curve is deve...
متن کاملSeiberg - Witten Theory , Integrable Systems and D - branes ∗
In this note it is demonstrated how the Seiberg-Witten solutions and related integrable systems may arise from certain brane configurations in M-theory. Some subtleties of the formulation of the Seiberg-Witten theory via integrable systems are discussed and interpreted along the lines of general picture os string/M-theory dualities.
متن کاملMoyal Deformation , Seiberg - Witten - Map , and Integrable Models
A covariant formalism for Moyal deformations of gauge theory and differential equations which determine Seiberg-Witten maps is presented. Replacing the ordinary product of functions by the noncommutative Moyal product, noncommutative versions of integrable models can be constructed. We explore how a Seiberg-Witten map acts in such a framework. As a specific example, we consider a noncommutative...
متن کاملSeiberg-witten Prepotential from Instanton Counting
Direct evaluation of the Seiberg-Witten prepotential is accomplished following the localization programme suggested in [1]. Our results agree with all low-instanton calculations available in the literature. We present a two-parameter generalization of the Seiberg-Witten prepotential, which is rather natural from the M-theory/five dimensional perspective, and conjecture its relation to the tau-f...
متن کاملSeiberg-Witten Theory and Extended Toda Hierarchy
The quasiclassical solution to the extended Toda chain hierarchy, corresponding to the deformation of the simplest Seiberg-Witten theory by all descendants of the dual topological string model, is constructed explicitly in terms of the complex curve and generating differential. The first derivatives of prepotential or quasiclassical tau-function over the extra times, extending the Toda chain, a...
