Supersymmetric Index and s-rule for Type IIB Branes

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

We investigate the supersymmetric index of N=2,3 SU(n) supersymmetric Yang-Mills Chern Simons theories at level k by using the brane configuration with a (p,q)5-brane. We can explain that the supersymmetry breaking occurs when k<n in terms of the s-rule for Type IIB branes. The supersymmetric index coincides with the number of the possible supersymmetric brane configurations. We also discuss a construction of a family of theories which have the same supersymmetric index.
