Strong coupling expansion and Seiberg-Witten-Whitham equations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

We study the Seiberg-Witten-Whitham equations in the strong coupling regime of the N=2 super Yang-Mills theory in the vicinity of the maximal singularities. In the case of SU(2) the Seiberg-Witten-Whitham equations fix completely the strong coupling expansion. For higher rank SU(N) they provide a set of non-trivial constraints on the form of this expansion. As an example, we study the off-diagonal couplings at the maximal point for which we propose an ansatz that fulfills all the equations.
