Superconformal invariance and the geography of four-manifolds

Marcos Marino, Gregory Moore, Grigor Peradze

The correlation functions of supersymmetric gauge theories on a four-manifold X can sometimes be expressed in terms of topological invariants of X. We show how the existence of sup…

3-manifold topology and the Donaldson-Witten partition function

Marcos Marino, Gregory Moore

We consider Donaldson-Witten theory on four-manifolds of the form where is a compact three-manifold. We show that there are interesting relations between…

Four-manifold geography and superconformal symmetry

Marcos Marino, Gregory Moore, Grigor Peradze

A compact oriented 4-manifold is defined to be of ``superconformal simple type'' if certain polynomials in the basic classes (constructed using the Seiberg-Witten invariants) vanis…

Counting higher genus curves in a Calabi-Yau manifold

Marcos Marino, Gregory Moore

We explicitly evaluate the low energy coupling in a compactification of the heterotic string. The holomorphic piece of this expression provides the inform…

Whitham Hierarchies, Instanton Corrections and Soft Supersymmetry Breaking in N=2 SU(N) Super Yang-Mills Theory

Jose D. Edelstein, Marcos Marino, Javier Mas

We study N=2 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(N) from the point of view of the Whitham hierarchy. We develop a new recursive method to compute the whole instanton expans…

Duality Symmetry in Softly Broken N=2 Gauge Theories

Marcos Marino, Frederic Zamora

We study the soft breaking of N=2 self-dual gauge theories down to N=0 by promoting the coupling constant and hypermultiplet masses to spurions, and we analyze the microscopic dual…
