Journal ArticleDOI
Asymptotic symmetries of three-dimensional gravity coupled to higher-spin fields
TL;DR: In this paper, the emergence of higher-spin fields coupled to three-dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant is discussed, where the authors focus on models involving a finite number of bosonic higher spin fields and especially on the example provided by a spin-3 field to gravity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wilson-Polyakov loop at finite temperature in large- N gauge theory and anti-de Sitter supergravity
TL;DR: In this paper, the Coulomb-like heavy quark potential has been shown to have a finite temperature scaling consistent with the underlying conformal invariance of d = 4, At" = 4 superconformal U(N) gauge theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple singularities and N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a particular sequence of hyperelliptic genus n - 1 Riemann surfaces is proposed to underly the quantum moduli space of W(n) N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mirror Symmetry, Mirror Map and Applications to Calabi-Yau Hypersurfaces
TL;DR: Mirror symmetry, Picard-Fuchs equations and instanton corrected Yukawa couplings are discussed in this article for Calabi-Yau spaces with two and three moduli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple Singularities and N=2 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a particular sequence of hyperelliptic genus $n-1$ Riemann surfaces is proposed to underly the quantum moduli space of N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.
