Non-Abelian Walls in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

چکیده
The Bogomol’nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) multi-wall solutions are constructed in supersymmetric U(NC) gauge theories in five dimensions with NF(> NC) hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. Exact solutions are obtained with full generic moduli for infinite gauge coupling and with partial moduli for finite gauge coupling. The generic wall solutions require nontrivial configurations for either gauge fields or off-diagonal components of adjoint scalars depending on the gauge. Effective theories of moduli fields are constructed as world-volume gauge theories. Nambu-Goldstone and quasi-Nambu-Goldstone scalars are distinguished and worked out. Total moduli space of the BPS non-Abelian walls including all topological sectors is found to be the complex Grassmann manifold SU(NF)/[SU(NC)×SU(NF−NC)×U(1)] endowed with a deformed metric. e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected] e-mail address: [email protected]

متن کاملVacua of Massive Hyper-Kähler Sigma Models with Non-Abelian Quotient
The Higgs branch of N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories with non-Abelian gauge groups are described by hyper-Kähler (HK) nonlinear sigma models with potential terms. Using the non-Abelian HK quotient with respect to U(M) and SU(M) gauge groups, we derive the massive HK sigma models that are not toric in the N = 1 superfield formalism and the harmonic superspace formalism. The U(M) quotient give...

With the non-Abelian HK quotient by U(M) and SU(M) gauge groups, we give the massive HK sigma models that are not toric in the N = 1 superfield formalism and the harmonic superspace formalism. The U(M) quotient gives N !/[M !(N −M)!...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Vortices on Cylinder
We investigate vortices on a cylinder in supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theory with hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We identify moduli space of periodic vortices and find that a pair of wall-like objects appears as the vortex moduli is varied. Usual domain walls also can be obtained from the single vortex on the cylinder by introducing a twisted boundary condition. We can u...
