Cascades with adjoint matter: adjoint transitions

Relating adjoint negations with strong adjoint negations

On meta - stable SQCD with adjoint matter and gauge mediation

We briefly review our analysis of a model with non supersymmetric vacua in N = 1 gauge theories with adjoint matter and no R-symmetry. We show here that this model without any modification fits into a direct gauge mediation scenario and leads to massive gauginos.

Adjoint and self - adjoint differential operators on graphs ∗

A differential operator on a directed graph with weighted edges is characterized as a system of ordinary differential operators. A class of local operators is introduced to clarify which operators should be considered as defined on the graph. When the edge lengths have a positive lower bound, all local self-adjoint extensions of the minimal symmetric operator may be classified by boundary condi...

OMPARISON OF DISCRETE FORWARD AND ADJOINT METHOD Forward Adjoint

Sensitivity analysis is an important tool for describing power system dynamic behavior in response to parameter variations. It is a central component in preventive and corrective control applications. The existing approaches for sensitivity calculations, namely, finite-difference and forward sensitivity analysis, require a computational effort that increases linearly with the number of sensitiv...

Two Dimensional QCD coupled to Adjoint Matter and String Theory

We study 2d QCD coupled to fermions in the adjoint representation of the gauge group SU(N) at large N , and its relation to string theory. It is shown that the model undergoes a deconfinement transition at a finite temperature (analogous to the Hagedorn transition in string theory), with certain winding modes in the Euclidean time direction turning tachyonic at high temperature. The theory is s...
