Low Energy Dynamics of Monopoles in Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theories with Hypermultiplets
نویسنده
چکیده
We derive the low energy dynamics of monopoles and dyons in N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with hypermultiplets in arbitrary representations by utilizing a collective coordinate expansion. We consider the most general case that Higgs fields both in the vector multiplet and in the hypermultiplets have nonzero vacuum expectation values. The resulting theory is a supersymmetric quantum mechanics which has been obtained by a nontrivial dimensional reduction of two-dimensional (4,0) supersymmetric sigma models with potentials.

Duality, Multi-Monopole Dynamics & Quantum Threshold Bound States
Dynamics of supersymmetric monopoles are studied in the low energy approximation. A conjecture for the exact moduli space metric is given for all collections of fundamental monopoles of distinct type, and various partial confirmations of the conjecture are outlined. Upon the quantization of the resulting multi-monopole dynamics in the context of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills-Higgs theories, o...
متن کاملLow Energy Dynamics of N=2 Supersymmetric Monopoles
It is argued that the low-energy dynamics of k monopoles in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are determined by an N=4 supersymmetric quantum mechanics based on the moduli space of k static monople solutions. This generalises Manton’s “geodesic approximation” for studying the low-energy dynamics of (bosonic) BPS monopoles. We discuss some aspects of the quantisation and in particular argue t...
متن کاملMagnetic Monopole Dynamics, Supersymmetry, and Duality
We review the properties of BPS, or supersymmetric, magnetic monopoles, with an emphasis on their low-energy dynamics and their classical and quantum bound states. After an overview of magnetic monopoles, we discuss the BPS limit and its relation to supersymmetry. We then discuss the properties and construction of multimonopole solutions with a single nontrivial Higgs field. The low-energy dyna...
متن کاملPeriods and Prepotential of N=2 SU(2) Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory with Massive Hypermultiplets
We derive a simple formula for the periods associated with the low energy effective action of N = 2 supersymmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with massive Nf ≤ 3 hypermultiplets. This is given by evaluating explicitly the integral associated to the elliptic curve using various identities of hypergeometric functions. Following this formalism, we can calculate the prepotential with massive hypermult...
متن کاملPrepotential of N = 2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theories in the Weak Coupling Region
We show how to obtain the explicite form of the low energy quantum effective action for N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the weak coupling region from the underlying hyperelliptic Riemann surface. This is achieved by evaluating the integral representation of the fields explicitly. We calculate the leading instanton corrections for the group SU(Nc), SO(N) and SP (2N) and find that the o...
