Reformulations of the Yang-Mills theory toward quark confinement and mass gap

Kei-Ichi Kondo, Seikou Kato, Akihiro Shibata +1

We propose the reformulations of the Yang-Mills theory toward quark confinement and mass gap. In fact, we have given a new framework for reformulating the Yang-Mill…

Integrability of Particle System around a Ring Source as the Newtonian Limit of a Black Ring

Takahisa Igata, Hideki Ishihara, Hirotaka Yoshino

The geodesic equation in the five-dimensional singly rotating black ring is non-integrable unlike the case of the Myers-Perry black hole. In the Newtonian limit of the black ring,…

Hyper-Kähler with Torsion, T-duality, and Defect (p,q) Five-branes

Tetsuji Kimura, Shin Sasaki, Masaya Yata

We investigate a five-branes interpretation of hyper-Kähler geometry with torsion (HKT). This geometry is obtained by conformal transformation of the Taub-NUT space which represent…

Emergent bubbling geometries in gauge theories with SU(2|4) symmetry

Yuhma Asano, Goro Ishiki, Shinji Shimasaki

We study the gauge/gravity duality between bubbling geometries in type IIA supergravity and gauge theories with SU(2|4) symmetry, which consist of N=4 super Yang-Mills on $R\times…

Decoupling and non-decoupling dynamics of large D black holes

Roberto Emparan, Ryotaku Suzuki, Kentaro Tanabe

The limit of large number of dimensions localizes the gravitational field of a black hole in a well-defined region near the horizon. The perturbative dynamics of the black hole can…

Supersymmetric heterotic solutions via non-SU(3) standard embedding

Kazuki Hinoue, Shun'ya Mizoguchi, Yukinori Yasui

A supersymmetric solution to type II supergravity is constructed by superposing two hyperkählers with torsion metrics. The solution is given by a Käler with torsion metric with $SU…

T-duality Transformation of Gauged Linear Sigma Model with F-term

Tetsuji Kimura, Masaya Yata

We develop the duality transformation rules in two-dimensional theories in the superfield formalism. Even if the chiral superfield which we dualize involves an F-term, we can duali…
