’t Hooft Conditions in Supersymmetric Dual Theories
نویسنده
چکیده
The matching of global anomalies of a supersymmetric gauge theory and its dual is seen to follow from similarities in their classical chiral rings. These similarities provide a formula for the dimension of the dual gauge group. As examples we derive ’t Hooft consistency conditions for the duals of supersymmetric QCD and SU(N) theories with matter in the adjoint, and obtain the dimension of the dual groups.

’t HOOFT ANOMALY MATCHING FOR DISCRETE SYMMETRIES
We show how to extend the ’t Hooft anomaly matching conditions to discrete symmetries. We check these discrete anomaly matching conditions on several proposed low-energy spectra of certain strongly interacting gauge theories. The excluded examples include the proposed chirally symmetric vacuum of pure N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories, certain nonsupersymmetric confining theories and som...
متن کامل‘t Hooft Anomaly Matching for QCD
I present a set of theories which display non-trivial ‘t Hooft anomaly matching for QCD with F flavors. The matching theories are non-Abelian gauge theories with “dual” quarks and baryons, rather than the purely confining theories of baryons that ‘t Hooft originally searched for. The matching gauge groups are required to have an F ± 6 dimensional representation. Such a correspondence is reminis...

متن کاملDuality of Chiral N = 1 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories via Branes
Using a six-orientifold on top of a NS-fivebrane we construct a chiral N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions with gauge group SU(Nc) and matter in the symmetric, antisymmetric and (anti)fundamental representations. Anomaly cancellation is fulfilled by the requirement of a smooth RR 7-form charge distribution and leads us to the introduction of 8 half D-sixbranes ending on the NS-...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Wilson Loops in Diverse Dimensions
We consider supersymmetric Wilson loops à la Zarembo in planar supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories in diverse dimensions. Using perturbation theory we show that these loops have trivial vacuum expectation values to second order in the ’t Hooft coupling. We review the known superspace results which, for specific dimensions, extend this triviality to all orders in the ’t Hooft coupling. Using the ...
