We generalize the Giveon-Kutasov duality for the 3d $\mathcal{N}=3$ $U(N)_{k,k+nN}$ Chern-Simons matter gauge theory with $F$ fundamental hypermultiplets by introducing $SU(N)$ and $U(1)$ Chern-Simons levels differently. We study the…
We consider four-dimensional Omega-deformed N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory on A1 space and its lift to five dimensions. We find that the partition functions can be reproduced via special geometry and the holomorphic anomaly equation.…
We construct a pseudoclassical particle model associated to the twisted N=2 SUSY algebra in four dimensions. The particle model has four kappa symmetries. Three of them can be used to reduce the model to the vector supersymmetry particle…
The integrable model corresponding to the ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory with matter in the symmetric representation is constructed. It is a spin chain model, whose key feature is a new twisted monodromy condition.
I show that physical quantities in several two-dimensional condensed-matter models are related to the Seiberg-Witten calculation of exact quantities in supersymmetric gauge theory. In particular, the magnetization in the Kondo problem and…
We give a gauge invariant formulation of $N=2$ supersymmetric abelian Toda field equations in \n2 superspace. Superconformal invariance is studied. The conserved currents are shown to be associated with Drinfeld-Sokolov type gauges. The…
Motivated by applications to soft supersymmetry breaking, we revisit the expansion of the Seiberg-Witten solution around the multi-monopole point on the Coulomb branch of pure $SU(N)$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theory in four dimensions. At this…
We construct N=1 supersymmetry in 4+2 dimensions compatible with the theoretical framework of 2T physics field theory and its gauge symmetries. The fields are arranged into 4+2 dimensional chiral and vector supermultiplets, and their…
For any 5d ${\cal N}=1$ superconformal field theory, we propose a "complete" prepotential which reduces to the perturbative prepotential for any of its possible gauge theory realizations, manifests its global symmetry when written in terms…
We consider the effective superpotential of N=2, U(N) gauge model where N=2 supersymmetry is spontaneously broken to N=1. By the computation of loop diagrams, we obtain a formula for the effective superpotential which is deformed from the…
Using exceptional generalised geometry, we classify which five-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ gauged supergravities can arise as a consistent truncation of 10-/11-dimensional supergravity. Exceptional generalised geometry turns the classification…
We study the beta functions of the quartic and Yukawa couplings of General Relativity and Unimodular Gravity coupled to the $\lambda\phi^4$ and Yukawa theories with masses. We show that the General Relativity corrections to those beta…
Results about the phase structure of certain N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories, which have been obtained as a consequence of holomorphy and `electric-magnetic' duality, are shown to be in quantitative agreement with corresponding…
We consider M-theory and type IIA reductions to four dimensions with N=2 and N=1 supersymmetry and discuss their interconnection. Our work is based on the framework of Exceptional Generalized Geometry (EGG), which extends the tangent bundle…
The equations that follow from kappa symmetry of the type II Green-Schwarz string are a certain deformation, by a Killing vector field $K$, of the type II supergravity equations. We analyze under what conditions solutions of these…
