Partial Breaking of N=2 Supersymmetry and of Gauge Symmetry in the U(N) Gauge Model

We explore vacua of the U(N) gauge model with N=2 supersymmetry recently constructed in hep-th/0409060. In addition to the vacuum previously found with unbroken U(N) gauge symmetry in which N=2 supersymmetry is partially broken to N=1, we find cases in which the gauge symmetry is broken to a product gauge group \prod_{i=1}^n U(N_i). The N=1 vacua are selected by the requirement of a positive definite Kahler metric. We obtain the masses of the supermultiplets appearing on the N=1 vacua.Comment: 23 pages, 3 figures; references added and typos correcte

N=2 Supermultiplet of Currents and Anomalous Transformations in Supersymmetric Gauge Theory

We examine some properties of supermultiplet consisting of the U(1)_{J} current, extended supercurrents, energy-momentum tensor and the central charge in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The superconformal improvement requires adding another supermultiplet beginning with the U(1)_{R} current. We determine the anomalous (quantum mechanical) supersymmetry transformation associated with the central charge and the energy-momentum tensor to one-loop order.Comment: 8 pages, LaTe

Macroscopic nn-Loop Amplitude for Minimal Models Coupled to Two-Dimensional Gravity: Fusion Rules and Interactions

We investigate the structure of the macroscopic $n$-loop amplitude obtained from the two-matrix model at the unitary minimal critical point $(m+1,m)$. We derive a general formula for the $n$-resolvent correlator at the continuum planar limit whose inverse Laplace transform provides the amplitude in terms of the boundary lengths $\ell_{i}$ and the renormalized cosmological constant $t$. The amplitude is found to contain a term consisting of $\left( \frac{\partial} {\partial t} \right)^{n-3}$ multiplied by the product of modified Bessel functions summed over their degrees which conform to the fusion rules and the crossing symmetry. This is found to be supplemented by an increasing number of other terms with $n$ which represent residual interactions of loops. We reveal the nature of these interactions by explicitly determining them as the convolution of modified Bessel functions and their derivatives for the case $n=4$ and the case $n=5$. We derive a set of recursion relations which relate the terms in the $n$-resolvents to those in the $(n-1)$-resolvents.Comment: 30 pages, Latex, figures: figures have been introduced to represent our results on the resolvents. A better formula for the resolvents has been put and the section on residual interactions has been expanded to a large exten

Asymptotic Search for Ground States of SU(2) Matrix Theory

We introduce a complete set of gauge-invariant variables and a generalized Born-Oppenheimer formulation to search for normalizable zero-energy asymptotic solutions of the Schrodinger equation of SU(2) matrix theory. The asymptotic method gives only ground state candidates, which must be further tested for global stability. Our results include a set of such ground state candidates, including one state which is a singlet under spin(9).Comment: 51 page

Normalization of Off-shell Boundary State, g-function and Zeta Function Regularization

We consider the model in two dimensions with boundary quadratic deformation (BQD), which has been discussed in tachyon condensation. The partition function of this model (BQD) on a cylinder is determined, using the method of zeta function regularization. We show that, for closed channel partition function, a subtraction procedure must be introduced in order to reproduce the correct results at conformal points. The boundary entropy (g-function) is determined from the partition function and the off-shell boundary state. We propose and consider a supersymmetric generalization of BQD model, which includes a boundary fermion mass term, and check the validity of the subtraction procedure.Comment: 21 pages, LaTeX, comments and 3 new references adde

Integrable Discrete Linear Systems and One-Matrix Model

In this paper we analyze one-matrix models by means of the associated discrete linear systems. We see that the consistency conditions of the discrete linear system lead to the Virasoro constraints. The linear system is endowed with gauge invariances. We show that invariance under time-independent gauge transformations entails the integrability of the model, while the double scaling limit is connected with a time-dependent gauge transformation. We derive the continuum version of the discrete linear system, we prove that the partition function is actually the $\tau$-function of the KdV hierarchy and that the linear system completely determines the Virasoro constraints.Comment: 31page

N=2 Quiver Gauge Model and Partial Supersymmetry Breaking

We construct an action of N=2 affine $A_n$ quiver gauge model having non-canonical kinetic terms and equipped with electric and magnetic FI terms. N=2 supersymmetry is shown to be broken to N=1 spontaneously and N=1 multiplets realized on the vacua are given. We also mention the models with different gauge groups. It is argued that the affine $A_1$ quiver gauge model provides a dynamical realization to approach the Klebanov-Witten N=1 fixed point.Comment: 19 page

Macroscopoic Three-Loop Amplitudes and the Fusion Rules from the Two-Matrix Model

From the computation of three-point singlet correlators in the two-matrix model, we obtain an explicit expression for the macroscopic three-loop amplitudes having boundary lengths $\ell_{i}$ $(i = 1\sim 3)$ in the case of the unitary series $(p,q)= (m+1,m)$ coupled to two-dimensional gravity. The sum appearing in this expression is found to conform to the structure of the CFT fusion rules while the summand factorizes through a product of three modified Bessel functions. We briefly discuss a possible generalization of these features to macroscopic $n$-loop amplitudes.Comment: 9 pages, no figure, late
