Matrix model approach to the N=2 U(N) gauge theory with matter in the fundamental representation
S. Naculich, H. Schnitzer, N. Wyllard
We use matrix model technology to study the N=2 U(N) gauge theory with N_f massive hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. We perform a completely perturbative calculati…
The N=2 gauge theory prepotential and periods from a perturbative matrix model calculation
S. Naculich, H. Schnitzer, N. Wyllard
We perform a completely perturbative matrix model calculation of the physical low-energy quantities of the N=2 U(N) gauge theory. Within the matrix model framework we propose a per…
pp-wave limits and orientifolds
Stephen G. Naculich, Howard J. Schnitzer, Niclas Wyllard
We study the pp-wave limits of various elliptic models with orientifold planes and D7-branes, as well as the pp-wave limit of an orientifold of adS_5 x T^{11}. Many of the limits c…
An orientifold of adS_5xT^11 with D7-branes, the associated alpha'^2- corrections and their role in the dual N=1 Sp(2N+2M)xSp(2N) gauge theory
Howard J. Schnitzer, Niclas Wyllard
We study the N=1 Sp(2N+2M)xSp(2N) gauge theory on a stack of N physical and M fractional D3-branes in the background of an orientifolded conifold. The gravity dual is a type IIB or…
A cascading N=1 Sp(2N+2M)xSp(2N) gauge theory
Stephen G. Naculich, Howard J. Schnitzer, Niclas Wyllard
We study the N=1 Sp(2N+2M)xSp(2N) cascading gauge theory on a stack of N physical and M fractional (half) D3-branes at the singularity of an orientifolded conifold. In addition to…
