A bstract The BPS correlators of the symmetric product orbifold Sym N (

A `locally-finite' observable is one for which there no region of divergence anywhere in the space real loop momenta; it can therefore be computed (in principle) without regularization. In this work, we prove that all two-loop ratio functions planar, maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are locally-finite.

We propose a method for the stabilisation of quantum computations (including quantum state storage). The method is based on the operation of projection into SYM, the symmetric subspace of the full state space of R redundant copies of the computer. We describe an efficient algorithm and quantum network effecting SYM–projection and discuss the stabilising effect of the proposed method in the cont...

Cachazo and Vafa provided a proof of the equivalence of N = 1 dynamics obtained by deforming N = 2 SYM by addition of certain superpotential terms, with that of type IIB superstring on Calabi-Yau manifold with fluxes. We extend the proof to SYM with massive flavors in fundamental representation of gauge group. For the gauge group we consider U(N) and SO(N)/Sp(N) groups. When the adding tree lev...
