Removable Singularities for Yang-mills Connections in Higher Dimensions
We prove several removable singularity theorems for singular Yang-Mills connections on bundles over Riemannian manifolds of dimensions greater than four. We obtain the local and global removability of singularities for Yang-Mills connections with L∞ or L n 2 bounds on their curvature tensors, with weaker assumptions in the L∞ case and stronger assumptions in the L n 2 case. With the global gaug...
متن کاملHigher Yang–Mills Theory
Electromagnetism can be generalized to Yang–Mills theory by replacing the group U(1) by a nonabelian Lie group. This raises the question of whether one can similarly generalize 2-form electromagnetism to a kind of ‘higher-dimensional Yang–Mills theory’. It turns out that to do this, one should replace the Lie group by a ‘Lie 2-group’, which is a category C where the set of objects and the set o...
متن کاملOn Duality in Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
We discuss non-abelian SU (N c) gauge theory coupled to an adjoint chiral superfield X, and a number of fundamental chiral superfields Q i. Using duality, we show that turning on a superpotential W (X) = Tr k l=1 g l X l+1 leads to non-trivial long distance dynamics, a large number of multicritical IR fixed points and vacua, connected to each other by varying the coefficients g l .
متن کاملSupersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory in Eleven Dimensions
We present a Lorentz invariant lagrangian formulation for a supersymmetric Yang-Mills vector multiplet in eleven dimensions (11D). The Lorentz symmetry is broken at the field equation level, and therefore the breaking is spontaneous, as in other formulations of supersymmetric theories in 12D or higher dimensions. We introduce a space-like unit vector formed by the gradient of a scalar field, av...
متن کاملThe Plane-Wave/Super Yang-Mills Duality
We present a self-contained review of the Plane-wave/super-Yang-Mills duality, which states that strings on a plane-wave background are dual to a particular large R-charge sector of N = 4, D = 4 superconformal U(N) gauge theory. This duality is a specification of the usual AdS/CFT correspondence in the “Penrose limit”. The Penrose limit of AdS5 × S leads to the maximally supersymmetric ten dime...
