Topological resolution of gauge theory singularities
Some gauge theories with Coulomb branches exhibit singularities in perturbation theory, which are usually resolved by nonperturbative physics. In string theory this corresponds to the resolution of timelike singularities near the core of orientifold planes by effects from F or M theory. We propose a new mechanism for resolving Coulomb branch singularities in three dimensional gauge theories, ba...
متن کاملTopological Gauge Theory and Twistors
By use of harmonic superfields, Witten’s topological gauge theory is written as a field theory on a supertwistor space. Further, using the realisation of complex compactified Minkowski space as a quadric in CP , we show that the theory has a simple formulation in terms of analytic superfields on super-CP 5 ×CP . This research was supported in part by the U.S. Department of Energy
متن کاملGauge theory of topological phases of matter
We study the response of quantum many-body systems to coupling some of their degrees of freedom to external gauge fields. This serves to understand the current Green functions and transport properties of interacting many-body systems. Our analysis leads to a “gauge theory of states of matter” complementary to the well-known Landau theory of order parameters. We illustrate the power of our appro...
متن کاملPossible Resolution of Black Hole Singularities from Large N Gauge Theory Gary
We point out that the recent conjecture relating largeN gauge theories to string theory in anti-de Sitter spaces o ers a resolution in principle of many problems in black hole physics. This is because the gauge theory also describes spacetimes which are not anti-de Sitter, and include black hole horizons and curvature singularities. gary, [email protected]
