The exact solution of N=2 supersymmetric QCD found by Seiberg and Witten includes a prediction for all multi-instanton contributions to the low-energy dynamics. In the case where the matter hypermultiplets are massless, the leading…
We derive a form of master loop equations for the lattice Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with structure group $SO(N)$, $U(N)$ or $SU(N)$. Compared to the pure Yang-Mills setting, several new operations arise. In fact, to obtain a closed recursion…
The gauged Witten equation was essentially introduced by Witten in his formulation of gauged linear $\sigma$-model (GLSM). GLSM is a physics theory which explains the so-called Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence. This is the first…
