چکیده

In this note we study half-BPS operators in N = 4 super Yang-Mills for gauge group SU(N). In particular we elaborate on the results of hep-th/0410236, providing an exact formula for the null basis operators algorithmically constructed there. For gauge groups U(N) and SU(N) we show that this basis is dual to the basis of multi-trace operators with respect to the two point function. We use this to extend the results of hep-th/0611290 concerning factorisation and probabilities from U(N) to SU(N). We also give a construction for a separate diagonal basis of the SU(N) operators in terms of the higher Hamiltonians of the complex matrix model reduction of this sector.

In this note we study half-BPS operators in N = 4 super Yang-Mills for gauge group SU(N) at finite N. In particular we elaborate on the results of hep-th/0410236, providing an exact formula for the null basis operators algorithmically constructed there. For gauge groups U(N) and SU(N) we show that this basis is dual to the basis of multi-trace operators with respect to the two point function. W...

We consider N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory formulated in terms of N = 2 superfields in harmonic superspace. Using the background field method we define manifestly gauge invariant and N = 2 supersymmetric effective action depending on N = 2 strength superfields and develop a general procedure for its calculation in one-loop approximation. Explicit form for this effective action is found ...

String Breaking from Ladder Diagrams in SYM Theory

The AdS/CFT correspondence establishes a string representation for Wilson loops in N = 4 SYM theory at large N and large ’t Hooft coupling. One of the clearest manifestations of the stringy behaviour in Wilson loop correlators is the string breaking phase transition. It is shown that resummation of planar diagrams without internal vertices predicts the strong-coupling phase transtion in exactly...

String Theory Duals for Mass - deformed SO ( N ) and USp ( 2 N ) N = 4 SYM Theories

We generalize the results of Polchinski and Strassler regarding the N = 1-preserving mass deformation of N = 4 SU(N) SYM theories and its string theory dual to SO(N) and USp(2N) gauge groups. The string theory duals involve 5-branes wrapped on RP. In order to match with the field theory classification of vacua, the 3-brane charge carried by such 5-branes must be shifted by a half, and this foll...

A Matrix String Interpretation of the Large N Loop Equation

The existence two S-dual descriptions of (N,1) string bound states suggests that the strong coupling behaviour of electric flux lines in large N 2D SYM theory has a dual description in terms of weakly coupled IIB string theory. In support of this identification, we propose a dual interpretation of the SYM loop equation as a perturbative string Ward identity, expressing the conformal invariance ...
