On supersymmetry breaking and the Dijkgraaf-Vafa conjecture

چکیده
We investigate the Dijkgraaf-Vafa proposal when supersymmetry is broken. We consider U(N) SYM with chiral adjoint matter where the coupling constants in the tree-level superpotential are promoted to chiral spurions. The holomorphic part of the low-energy glueball superpotential can still be analyzed. We compute the holomorphic supersymmetry breaking contributions using methods of the geometry underlying the N = 1 effective gauge theory viewed as a Whitham system. We also study the change in the effective glueball superpotential using perturbative supergraph techniques in the presence of spurions. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected]

Local string models of soft supersymmetry breaking
We study soft supersymmetry breaking in local models of type II string theory compactifications with branes and fluxes. In such models, magnetic fluxes can be treated as auxiliary fields in N = 2 SUSY multiplets. These multiplets appear as “spurion superfields” in the low-energy effective action for the local model. We discuss the pattern of SUSY breaking from N = 2 to N = 1 to N = 0 in these m...

متن کاملHolomorphic Anomaly in Gauge Theories and Matrix Models
We use the holomorphic anomaly equation to solve the gravitational corrections to Seiberg-Witten theory and a two-cut matrix model, which is related by the Dijkgraaf-Vafa conjecture to the topological B-model on a local CalabiYau manifold. In both cases we construct propagators that give a recursive solution in the genus modulo a holomorphic ambiguity. In the case of SeibergWitten theory the gr...
متن کاملThe Proof of the Dijkgraaf-Vafa Conjecture and application to the mass gap and confinement problems
Using generalized Konishi anomaly equations, it is known that one can express, in a large class of supersymmetric gauge theories, all the chiral operators expectation values in terms of a finite number of a priori arbitrary constants. We show that these constants are fully determined by the requirement of gauge invariance and an additional anomaly equation. The constraints so obtained turn out ...
