Dual Interpretations of Seiberg–Witten and Dijkgraaf–Vafa curves
نویسنده
چکیده
We give dual interpretations of Seiberg–Witten and Dijkgraaf–Vafa (or matrix model) curves in N = 1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory. This duality interchanges the rank of the gauge group with the degree of the superpotential; moreover, the constraint of having at most log-normalizable deformations of the geometry is mapped to a constraint in the number of flavors Nf < N in the dual theory.

The Dijkgraaf - Vafa correspondence for theories withfundamental matter fields ∗
In this talk I describe some applications of random matrix models to the study of N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with matter fields in the fundamental representation. I review the derivation of the Veneziano-Yankielowicz-Taylor/Affleck-Dine-Seiberg superpotentials from constrained random matrix models (hep-th/0211082), a field theoretical justification of the logarithmicmatter contrib...
متن کاملSO(N) Superpotential, Seiberg-Witten Curves and Loop Equations
We consider the exact superpotential of N = 1 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SO(N) and arbitrary tree-level polynomial superpotential of one adjoint Higgs field. A field-theoretic derivation of the glueball superpotential is given, based on factorization of the N = 2 Seiberg-Witten curve. Following the conjecture of Dijkgraaf and Vafa, the result is matched with the corresponding SO(N...
متن کاملTwisted Six Dimensional Gauge Theories on Tori, Matrix Models, and Integrable Systems
We use the Dijkgraaf-Vafa technique to study massive vacua of 6D SU(N) SYM theories on tori with R-symmetry twists. One finds a matrix model living on the compactification torus with a genus 2 spectral curve. The Jacobian of this curve is closely related to a twisted four torus T in which the Seiberg-Witten curves of the theory are embedded. We also analyze R-symmetry twists in a bundle with no...
متن کاملSeiberg–Witten Duality in Dijkgraaf–Vafa Theory
We show that a suitable rescaling of the matrix model coupling constant makes manifest the duality group of the N = 2 SYM theory with gauge group SU (2). This is done by first identifying the possible modifications of the SYM moduli preserving the monodromy group. Then we show that in matrix models there is a simple rescaling of the pair (S D , S) which makes them dual variables with Γ(2) monod...
متن کاملHolomorphic Anomaly in Gauge Theories and Matrix Models
We use the holomorphic anomaly equation to solve the gravitational corrections to Seiberg-Witten theory and a two-cut matrix model, which is related by the Dijkgraaf-Vafa conjecture to the topological B-model on a local CalabiYau manifold. In both cases we construct propagators that give a recursive solution in the genus modulo a holomorphic ambiguity. In the case of SeibergWitten theory the gr...
