    Nonholomorphic N=2 terms in N=4 SYM: 1-Loop Calculation in N=2 superspace

    Get PDF
    The effective action of N=2 gauge multiplets in general includes higher-dimension UV finite nonholomorphic corrections integrated with the full N=2 superspace measure. By adding a hypermultiplet in the adjoint representation we study the effective action of N=4 SYM. The nonanomalous SU(4) R-symmetry of the classical N=4 theory must be also present in the on-shell effective action, and therefore we expect to find similar nonholomorphic terms for each of the scalars in the hypermultiplet. The N=2 path integral quantization formalism developed in projective superspace allows us to compute these hypermultiplet nonholomorphic terms directly in N=2 superspace. The corresponding gauge multiplet expression can be successfully compared with the result inferred from a N=1 calculation in the abelian subsector.Comment: 12 pages, LaTex, includes 4 .eps figures, sign convention in path integral definition changed, sign of nonholomorphic potential change

    Calculation of Four Point Correlation Function of Logarithmic Conformal Field Theory Using AdS/CFT Correspondence

    Get PDF
    We use the correspondence between scalar field theory on AdS and induced conformal field theory on its boundary to calculate correlation functions of logarithmic conformal field theory in arbitrary dimensions.Our calculations utilize the newly proposed method of nilpotent weights.We derive expressions for the four point function assuming a generic interaction termComment: 7 pages, no figure

    Full text link
    Correlation functions of Logarithmic conformal field theory is investigated using the ADS/CFT correspondence and a novel method based on nilpotent weights and 'super fields'. Adding an specific form of interaction, we introduce a perturbative method to calculate the correlation functions.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure
