Many roads lead to N=2 Seiberg-Witten theory
Stephen G. Naculich, Howard J. Schnitzer
The Seiberg-Witten solution plays a central role in the study of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories. As such, it provides a proving ground for a wide variety of techniques to treat…
Elliptic Fibrations and Elliptic Models
Amy E. Ksir, Stephen G. Naculich
We study the Seiberg-Witten curves for N=2 SUSY gauge theories arising from type IIA string configurations with two orientifold sixplanes. Such theories lift to elliptic models in…
Seiberg-Witten curves for elliptic models
I. Ennes, C. Lozano, S. Naculich +1
Four-dimensional N=2 gauge theories may be obtained from configurations of D-branes in type IIA string theory. Unitary gauge theories with two-index representations, and orthogonal…
M-Theory tested by N=2 Seiberg-Witten Theory
I. Ennes, C. Lozano, S. Naculich +2
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 in…
Tests of M-Theory from N=2 Seiberg-Witten Theory
I. P. Ennes, S. G. Naculich, H. Rhedin +1
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…
Fermion Vacuum Effects on Soliton Stability
Stephen G. Naculich
Just as fermion zero modes can alter the degeneracy and quantum numbers of a soliton, fermion energies can affect the form and stability of a nontopological soliton. We discuss the…
