Supersymmetric Gauge Theories with an Affine Quantum Moduli Space
نویسندگان
چکیده
All supersymmetric gauge theories based on simple groups which have an affine quantum moduli space, i.e. one generated by gauge invariants with no relations, W = 0, and anomaly matching at the origin, are classified. It is shown that the only theories with no gauge invariants (and moduli space equal to a single point) are the two known examples, SU(5) with 5 + 10 and SO(10) with a spinor. The index of the matter representation must be at least as big as the index of the adjoint in theories which have a non-trivial relation among the gauge invariants.

Systematic Study of Theories with Quantum Modified Moduli . II
UCSD/PTH 98–11 We complete the process of classifying all supersymmetric theories with quantum modified moduli. We present all the supersymmetric gauge theories based on a simple orthogonal or exceptional group that exhibit a quantum modified moduli space. The quantum modified constraints of theories derived from s-confining theories are invariant under all symmetries. However, theories that ca...

We study the N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories with Nf flavors of quarks in the fundamental vector representation. We find dynamically generated superpotentials, smooth quantum moduli space, quantum moduli space with additional mesons, non trivial IR fixed points.

متن کاملOn the Quantum Moduli Space of M -Theory Compactifications
We study the moduli space of M -theories compactified on G2 manifolds which are asymptotic to a cone over quotients of S × S. We show that the moduli space is composed of several components, each of which interpolates smoothly among various classical limits corresponding to low energy gauge theories with a given number of massless U(1) factors. Each component smoothly interpolates among supersy...
متن کاملQuantum moduli spaces from matrix models
In this paper we show that the matrix model techniques developed by Dijkgraaf and Vafa can be extended to compute quantum deformed moduli spaces of vacua in four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories. The examples studied give the moduli space of a bulk D-brane probe in geometrically engineered theories, in the presence of fractional branes at singularities.
متن کاملVacuum Structure and Spectrum of N=2 Supersymmetric SU(n) Gauge Theory.
We present an exact description of the metric on the moduli space of vacua and the spectrum of massive states for four dimensional N = 2 supersymmetric SU(n) gauge theories. The moduli space of quantum vacua is identified with the moduli space of a special set of genus n − 1 hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. 11.15.-q, 11.30.Pb Typeset using REVTEX
