Generalized WDVV equations for B_r and C_r pure N=2 Super-Yang-Mills theory

A proof that the prepotential for pure N=2 Super-Yang-Mills theory associated with Lie algebras B_r and C_r satisfies the generalized WDVV (Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde) system was given by Marshakov, Mironov and Morozov. Among other things, they use an associative algebra of holomorphic differentials. Later Ito and Yang used a different approach to try to accomplish the same result, but they encountered objects of which it is unclear whether they form structure constants of an associative algebra. We show by explicit calculation that these objects are none other than the structure constants of the algebra of holomorphic differentials.Comment: 8 page

Second order reductions of the WDVV Equations related to classical Lie algebras

We construct second order reductions of the generalized Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde system based on simple Lie algebras. We discuss to what extent some of the symmetries of the WDVV system are preserved by the reduction.Comment: 6 pages, 1 tabl
