Electric-magnetic duality allows to calculate the central charges of N=2 supersymmetric theories with massless hypermultiplets as derivatives of simple modular forms. The procedure reproduces the Seiberg-Witten results for N_f=0,2,3 in a…

We study an ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory defined on $M^4\times S^1$. The vacuum expectation values for adjoint scalar field in vector multiplet, though important, has been overlooked in evaluating one-loop effective…
Noncommutative Chern-Simons theory can be classically mapped to commutative Chern-Simons theory by the Seiberg-Witten map. We provide evidence that the equivalence persists at the quantum level by computing two and three-point functions of…
