چکیده
We provide a proof of the equivalence of N = 1 dynamics obtained by deforming N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories by addition of certain superpotential terms, with that of type IIB superstring on Calabi-Yau threefold geometries with fluxes. In particular we show that minimization of the superpotential involving gaugino fields is equivalent to finding loci where Seiberg-Witten curve has certain factorization property. Moreover, by considering the limit of turning off of the superpotential we obtain the full low energy dynamics of N = 2 gauge systems from Calabi-Yau geometries with fluxes.

4 - D gauged supergravity analysis of Type IIB vacua on K 3 × T 2 / Z 2
We analyze N = 2, 1, 0 vacua of type IIB string theory on K3 × T /Z2 in presence of three-form fluxes from a four dimensional supergravity viewpoint. The quaternionic geometry of the K3 moduli space together with the special geometry of the NS and R-R dilatons and of the T2-complex structure moduli play a crucial role in the analysis. The introduction of fluxes corresponds to a particular gaugi...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Intersecting D6-branes and Fluxes in Massive Type IIA String Theory
We study N=1 supersymmetric four-dimensional solutions of massive Type IIA supergravity with intersecting D6-branes in the presence NS-NS three-form fluxes. We derive N=1 supersymmetry conditions for the D6-brane and flux configurations in an internal manifold X6 and derive the intrinsic torsion (or SU(3)-structure) related to the fluxes. In the absence of fluxes, N=1 supersymmetry implies that...
متن کاملN = 2 Super - Higgs , N = 1 Poincaré Vacua and Quaternionic Geometry
In the context of N = 2 supergravity we explain the occurrence of partial super-Higgs with vanishing vacuum energy and moduli stabilization in a model suggested by superstring compactifications on type IIB orientifolds with 3-form fluxes. The gauging of axion symmetries of the quaternionic manifold, together with the use of degenerate symplectic sections for special geometry, are the essential ...
متن کاملAspects of spinorial geometry
We review some aspects of the spinorial geometry approach to the classification of supersymmetric solutions of supergravity theories. In particular, we explain how spinorial geometry can be used to express the Killing spinor equations in terms of a linear system for the fluxes and the geometry of spacetime. The solutions of this linear system express some of the fluxes in terms of the spacetime...
متن کاملGeneral N=1 supersymmetric flux vacua of massive type IIA string theory.
We derive conditions for the existence of four-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric flux vacua of massive type IIA string theory with general supergravity fluxes turned on. For an SU(3) singlet Killing spinor, we show that such flux vacua exist when the internal geometry is nearly Kähler. The geometry is not warped, all the allowed fluxes are proportional to the mass parameter, and the dilaton is fix...
