Baryonic Corrections to Superpotentials from Perturbation Theory
Riccardo Argurio, Vanicson L. Campos, Gabriele Ferretti +1
We study the corrections induced by a baryon vertex to the superpotential of SQCD with gauge group SU(N) and N quark flavors. We first compute the corrections order by order using…
Exact Superpotentials for Theories with Flavors via a Matrix Integral
Riccardo Argurio, Vanicson L. Campos, Gabriele Ferretti +1
We extend and test the method of Dijkgraaf and Vafa for computing the superpotential of N=1 theories to include flavors in the fundamental representation of the gauge group. This a…
Freezing of Moduli with Fluxes in Three Dimensions
Riccardo Argurio, Vanicson L. Campos, Gabriele Ferretti +1
We study warped compactifications to three dimensions, realized as an orientifold of type IIA string theory on T^7. By turning on 3- and 4-form fluxes on the torus in a supersymmet…
Comments on cosmological RG flows
Riccardo Argurio
We study cosmological backgrounds from the point of view of the dS/CFT correspondence and its renormalization group flow extension. We focus on the case where gravity is coupled to…
