چکیده

We argue that MQCD admits intersecting domain walls that are realized as Cayley calibrations of the MQCD M5-brane. We discuss various dual realizations and comment on how branes can realise domain walls in N=1 supersymmetric theories in D=3. 1 E-mail: [email protected] 2 E-mail: [email protected] 3 E-mail: [email protected]

Domain Walls in MQCD and Monge-Ampère Equation

We study Witten’s proposal that a domain wall exists in M-theory fivebrane version of QCD (MQCD) and that it can be represented as a supersymmetric three-cycle in G2 holonomy manifold. It is shown that equations defining the U(1) invariant domain wall for SU(2) group can be reduced to the Monge-Ampère equation. A proof of an algebraic formula of Kaplunovsky, Sonnenschein and Yankielowicz is pre...

Extended Objects in MQCD

N = 1 supersymmetric QCD is considered using the recently proposed picture of it as the world volume theory of a single M-theory fivebrane with two of its dimensions wrapped on a Riemann surface. The conditions under which a second M-theory brane can be introduced preserving some supersymmetry are analysed. Such configurations represent BPS saturated extended objects in the quantum field theory...

Domain Walls and Double Bubbles

We study configurations of intersecting domain walls in a Wess-Zumino model with three vacua. We introduce a volume-preserving flow and show that its static solutions are configurations of intersecting domain walls that form double bubbles, that is, minimal area surfaces which enclose and separate two prescribed volumes. To illustrate this field theory approach to double bubbles, we use domain ...

Supersymmetric Intersecting Domain Walls in Massive Hyper-Kähler Sigma Models

The general scalar potential of D-dimensional massive sigma-models with eight supersymmetries is found for D = 3, 4. These sigma models typically admit 1/2 supersymmetric domain wall solutions and we find, for a particular hyperKähler target, exact 1/4 supersymmetric static solutions representing a nontrivial intersection of two domain walls. We also show that the intersecting domain walls can ...

On Superpotential and BPS domain wall in SQCD and MQCD

We examine the decoupling properties of the N=2 SQCD vacua when the adjoint mass term is turned on and then the N=1 limit is taken. The BPS domain wall tension in N=1 MQCD and SQCD is also examined. The correspondence of the MQCD integrals with the superpotential and the gaugino condensate is shown. [email protected]
