We continue the work hep-th/0411075 considering here the case of degenerate masses. A nonabelian vortex arises in r-vacua upon the breaking by a superpotential for the adjoint field. We find the BPS tension in the strong coupling regime…
\small The SL$(2,R)/U(1)$ coset model, with $U(1)$ an element of the third conjugacy class of $SL(2,R)$ subgroups, is considered. The resulting theory is seen to collapse to a one dimensional field theory of Liouville. Then the 2…
In a first part, we give a new proof of Koenigs theorem and, in a second part, we determine the local form of all the superintegrable Riemannian Liouville metrics as well as their global geometries.
We propose a large N vector quantum mechanics as the theory describing a D-particle probe in bubbling supertube solutions. We compute the effective action of this quantum mechanics and show that it coincides with the D-particle action in a…
Partition functions of N=2 theories on the squashed 3-sphere have been recently shown to localise to matrix integrals. By explicitly evaluating the matrix integral we show that abelian partition functions can be expressed as a sum of…
Non-Abelian BPS vortex solutions are constructed in N=2 theories with gauge groups SO(N)\times U(1). The model has N_f flavors of chiral multiplets in the vector representation of SO(N), and we consider a color-flavor locked vacuum in which…
We discuss a gauged $U(1)_R$ supergravity on five-dimensional orbifold ($S^1/Z_2$) in which a $Z_2$-even U(1) gauge field takes part in the $U(1)_R$ gauging, and show the structure of Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) terms allowed in such model. Some…
Based on a path integral prescription for anomaly calculation, we analyze an effective theory of the two-dimensional $N=2$ supergravity, i.e., $N=2$ super-Liouville theory. We calculate the anomalies associated with the BRST supercurrent…
