Comments on Anomalies and Charges of Toric-Quiver Duals

چکیده
We obtain a simple expression for the triangle ‘t Hooft anomalies in quiver gauge theories that are dual to toric Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. We utilize the result and simplify considerably the proof concerning the equivalence of a-maximization and Z-minimization. We also resolve the ambiguity in defining the flavor charges in quiver gauge theories. We then compare coefficients of the triangle anomalies with coefficients of the current-current correlators and find perfect agreement.

Toric Geometry, Sasaki–Einstein Manifolds and a New Infinite Class of AdS/CFT Duals
Recently an infinite family of explicit Sasaki–Einstein metrics Y p,q on S2 × S3 has been discovered, where p and q are two coprime positive integers, with q < p. These give rise to a corresponding family of Calabi–Yau cones, which moreover are toric. Aided by several recent results in toric geometry, we show that these are Kähler quotients C4//U(1), namely the vacua of gauged linear sigma mode...
متن کامل2 Toric Duality , Seiberg Duality and Picard - Lefschetz Transformations
Toric Duality arises as an ambiguity in computing the quiver gauge theory living on a D3-brane which probes a toric singularity. It is reviewed how, in simple cases Toric Duality is Seiberg Duality. The set of all Seiberg Dualities on a single node in the quiver forms a group which is contained in a larger group given by a set of Picard-Lefschetz transformations. This leads to elements in the g...

متن کاملA simple class of N = 3 gauge / gravity duals Daniel
We find the gravity duals to an infinite series of N = 3 Chern-Simons quiver theories. They are AdS4 ×M7 vacua of M-theory, with M7 in a certain class of 3-SasakiEinstein manifolds obtained by a quotient construction. The field theories can be engineered from a brane configuration; their geometry is summarized by a “hyperKähler toric fan” that can be read off easily from the relative angles of ...
