Supersymmetric quiver gauge theories on the lattice

چکیده
In this paper we detail the lattice constructions of several classes of supersymmetric quiver gauge theories in two and three Euclidean spacetime dimensions possessing exact supersymmetry at finite lattice spacing. Such constructions are obtained through the methods of topological twisting and geometric discretization of Euclidean Yang-Mills theories with eight and sixteen supercharges in two and three dimensions. We detail the lattice constructions of two-dimensional quiver gauge theories possessing four and eight supercharges and three-dimensional quiver gauge theories possessing eight supercharges.

Quiver lattice supersymmetric matter , D 1 / D 5 branes and AdS 3 / CFT
I generalize the quiver lattice supersymmetric matter construction of Endres and Kaplan [hep-lat/0604012] to theories with 8 supercharges, denoted (4,4). I specialize to a particularly interesting (4,4) gauge theory. It describes the infrared limit of the D1/D5 brane system, which has been studied extensively as an example of the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence. I describe an application of the lattic...
متن کاملN = 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 کاملExplicit Analysis of Kahler Deformations in 4D N=1 Supersymmetric Quiver Theories
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 کاملModuli spaces of Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories
We analyse the classical moduli spaces of supersymmetric vacua of 3d N = 2 Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories. We show quite generally that the moduli space of the 3d theory always contains a baryonic branch of a parent 4d N = 1 quiver gauge theory, where the 4d baryonic branch is determined by the vector of 3d Chern-Simons levels. In particular, starting with a 4d quiver theory dual to a 3-fol...
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...
