摘要
The infrared limit of Yang-Mills theory with compact gauge group compactified on a two-torus is governed by an effective superconformal field theory. We conjecture that this is a certain orbifold involving the maximal torus of . Yang-Mills -duality makes predictions for all correlators of this effective conformal field theory. These predictions are shown to be implied by the standard -duality of the conformal field theory. Consequently, Montonen-Olive duality between electric and magnetic states reduces to the standard two-dimensional duality between momentum and winding states.
