Linear recursion relations for the instanton corrections to the effective prepotential of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories with an arbitrary number of hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation of an arbitrary classical gauge group…
Linear recursion relations for the instanton corrections to the effective prepotential are derived for N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories with one hypermultiplet in the adjoint representation of SU(N) using the Calogero-Moser…
In this paper we analyse the non-hyperelliptic Seiberg-Witten curves derived from M-theory that encode the low energy solution of N=2 supersymmetric theories with product gauge groups. We consider the case of a SU(N_1)xSU(N_2) gauge theory…
We compute instanton corrections to the low energy effective prepotential of N=2 supersymmetric theories in a variety of cases, including all classical gauge groups and even number of fundamental matter hypermultiplets. To this end, we take…
The one-instanton contribution to the prepotential for N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories with classical groups exhibits a universality of form. We extrapolate the observed regularity to SU(N) gauge theory with two antisymmetric…
Methods are reviewed for computing the instanton expansion of the prepotential for N=2 Seiberg-Witten (SW) theory with non-hyperelliptic curves. These results, if compared with the instanton expansion obtained from the microscopic…
We calculate the effective prepotentials for N=2 supersymmetric SO(N_c) and Sp(N_c) gauge theories, with an arbitrary number of hypermultiplets in the defining representation, from restrictions of the prepotentials for suitable N=2…
We study the non-perturbative properties of N=2 super conformal field theories in four dimensions using localization techniques. In particular we consider SU(2) gauge theories, deformed by a generic epsilon-background, with four fundamental…
We study the prepotential of N=2 gauge theories using the instanton counting techniques introduced by Nekrasov. For the SO theories without matter we find a closed expression for the full prepotential and its string theory gravitational…
We investigate the possibility to extract Seiberg-Witten curves from the formal series for the prepotential, which was obtained by the Nekrasov approach. A method for models whose Seiberg-Witten curves are not hyperelliptic is proposed. It…
One-instanton predictions for the prepotential are obtained from the Seiberg-Witten curve for the Coulomb branch of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory for the product group \prod_{n=1}^{m} SU(N_n) with a massless matter hypermultiplet in the…
We present a matrix-model expression for the sum of instanton contributions to the prepotential of an N=2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory, with matter in various representations. This expression is derived by combining the…
Methods are reviewed for computing the instanton expansion of the prepotential for N=2 Seiberg-Witten theory with non-hyperelliptic curves. These results, when compared with the instanton expansion obtained from the microscopic Lagrangian,…
We discuss the modular anomaly equation satisfied by the the prepotential of 4-dimensional N=2* theories and show that its validity is related to S-duality. The recursion relations that follow from the modular anomaly equation allow one to…
One-instanton predictions are obtained from certain non-hyperelliptic Seiberg-Witten curves derived from M-theory for N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories. We consider SU(N_1) x SU(N_2) gauge theory with a hypermultiplet in the bifundamental…
We determine the effective prepotential for N=2 supersymmetric SU(N_c) gauge theories with an arbitrary number of flavors N_f < 2N_c, from the exact solution constructed out of spectral curves. The prepotential is the same for the several…
We give an explicit derivation of the Picard-Fuchs equations for N=2 supersymmetric SU(3) Yang-Mills theory with $N_f<6$ massive hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We determine the instanton corrections to the prepotential…
We argue that for a large class of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories the effective superpotential as a function of the glueball chiral superfield is exactly given by a summation of planar diagrams of the same gauge theory. This perturbative…
We derive modular anomaly equations from the Seiberg-Witten-Donagi curves for softly broken N=4 SU(n) gauge theories. From these equations we can derive recursion relations for the pre-potential in powers of m^2, where m is the mass of the…
We study the equivariant instanton partition function in $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric theory on $\mathbb{C}^2$ with $SU(N)$ gauge group and find the generalisation of the Zamolodchikov recurrence relation. We consider the pure theory as…
