In this paper we investigate the large-$N$ behavior of 5-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Yang-Mills with a level $k$ Chern-Simons term and an adjoint hypermultiplet. As in three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories, one must choose an…
We consider the dimensional reductions of N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on R x S^3 to the three-dimensional theory on R x S^2, the orbifolded theory on R x S^3/Z_k, and the plane-wave matrix model. With explicit emphasis on the…
This thesis is concerned with the study of scattering amplitudes in four-dimensional conformal field theories, more particularly the N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. We study this theory first at tree level by using twistor space techniques and…
Spatial compactification on $\mathbb R^{3} \times \mathbb S^1_L$ at small $\mathbb S^1$-size $L$ often leads to a calculable vacuum structure, where various "topological molecules" are responsible for confinement and the realization of the…
Supergravity backgrounds dual to a class of exactly marginal deformations of N supersymmetric Yang-Mills can be constructed through an SL(2,R) sequence of T-dualities and coordinate shifts. We apply this transformation to multicenter…
We derive general low energy dynamics of monopoles and dyons in N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories by utilising a collective coordinate expansion. The resulting new kind of supersymmetric quantum mechanics incorporates the…
A reliable method to construct Supersymmetric Noether currents is presented. As the most important application the central charge of the N=2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills effective theory, known as Seiberg-Witten (SW) theory, is computed. The…
We calculate the Witten index for 3d supersymmetric Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theories with matter. For N=2 theories, our results coincide with the results of recent [1]. We compare the situation in 3d to that in 4d N = 1 theories with…
The low-energy limit of the 6D non-critical string theory with $N=1$ SUSY and $E_8$ chiral current algebra compactified on $T^2$ is generically an $N=2$ $U(1)$ vector multiplet. We study the analog of the Seiberg-Witten solution for the…
In this paper, we calculate the topological free energy for a number of ${\mathcal N} \geq 2$ Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons-matter theories at large $N$ and fixed Chern-Simons levels. The topological free energy is defined as the logarithm of the…
We study the large $N$ limit of a little string theory that reduces in the IR to U(N) ${\cal N} =1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills with Chern Simons coupling $k$. Witten has shown that this field theory preserves supersymmetry if $k\geq N/2$ and…
Recently, a number of intriguing results have been obtained for strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in vacuum and matter, using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In this work, we provide a physical picture supporting…
We propose an SL(2,R) Chern-Simons description of Liouville field theory (LFT), whose correlation function duals to partition function of N=2 SU(2) gauge theories. We give the dual expressions for conformal blocks, fusion rules, and Wilson…
We use localization techniques to compute the expectation values of supersymmetric Wilson loops in Chern-Simons theories with matter. We find the path-integral reduces to a non-Gaussian matrix model. The Wilson loops we consider preserve a…
The low energy effective Lagrangian for $N\es 2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, proposed by Seiberg and Witten is shown to be the unique solution, assuming only that supersymmetry is unbroken and that the number of strong-coupling…
We study the dyon spectrum in $N=2$ Super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group $SU(2)$ coupled to $N_f$ matter multiplets in the fundamental representation. For magnetic charge one and two we determine the spectrum explicitly and show that it…
We give the twisted version of N=2 Super Yang Mills theory coupled to matter, including quantum fields, supersymmetry transformations, action and algebraic structure. We show that the whole action, coupled to matter, can be written as the…
The unconstrained classical system equivalent to spatially homogeneous SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with theta angle is obtained and canonically quantized. The Schr\"odinger eigenvalue problem is solved approximately for the low lying states…
We solve Schr\"odinger's equation for the ground-state of {\it four}-dimensional Yang-Mills theory as an expansion in inverse powers of the coupling. Expectation values computed with the leading order approximation are reduced to a…
We investigate the supersymmetric Wilson loops in $d=3$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Chern-Simons-matter theory obtained from non-chiral orbifold of ABJM theory. We work in both Minkowski spacetime and Euclidean space, and we construct 1/4 and 1/2…
