Enhanced Gauge Symmetries and K3 Surfaces [PDF]

, 1995
String-string duality dictates that type IIA strings compactified on a K3 surface acquire non-abelian gauge groups for certain values of the K3 moduli. We argue that, contrary to expectation, the theories for which such enhanced gauge symmetries appear ...

Compactifications of ADE conformal matter on a torus

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this paper we study compactifications of ADE type conformal matter, N M5 branes probing ADE singularity, on torus with flux for global symmetry. We systematically construct the four dimensional theories by first going to five dimensions and studying ...

Dualties of adjoint QCD3 from branes

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We consider an ‘electric’ U(N) level k QCD3 theory with one adjoint Majorana fermion. Inspired by brane dynamics, we suggest that for k ≥ N/2 the massive m < 0 theory, in the vicinity of the supersymmetric point, admits a U k − N 2 − 1 2 k + 3 4 N , − k +

Duality and Superconvergence Relation in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

, 1997
We investigate the phase structures of various N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories including even the exceptional gauge group from the viewpoint of superconvergence of the gauge field propagator.

Two Dimensional Mirror Symmetry From M-theory [PDF]

, 1997
We construct two dimensional gauge theories with $N= (4,4)$ supersymmetry from branes of type IIA string theory. Quantum effects in the two dimensional gauge theory are analyzed by embedding the IIA brane construction into M-theory.

Renormalized electric and magnetic charges for O(r n ) large gauge symmetries

Journal of High Energy Physics
In this work we present the construction of a renormalized symplectic form on an extended phases space where the higher order large gauge transformations (LGT) act canonically. The expressions of the sub n -leading electric charges associated with each O(

Dualities in Supersymmetric Field Theories

, 1997
Lectures presented at the 33rd Karpacz Winter School ``Duality: Strings and Fields'' briefly introducing dualities in four-dimensional quantum field theory, and summarizing results found in supersymmetric field theories.

Dynamical edge modes in p-form gauge theories

Journal of High Energy Physics
We extend our recently identified dynamical edge mode boundary condition to p-form gauge theories, revealing their edge modes as Goldstone bosons arising from gauge transformations with support on the boundary.

Manifestly SL(2, R) Duality-Symmetric Forms in ModMax Theory

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
In this paper, we will investigate a manifestly SL(2, R)-invariant structure for the energy-momentum tensor of ModMax theory as a nonlinear modification of Maxwell electrodynamics which includes conformal invariance as well. In the context of this theory,
