TLDR
In this article, the authors demonstrate electric-magnetic duality in N = 1 supersymmetric non-Abelian gauge theories in four dimensions by presenting two different gauge theories (different gauge groups and quark representations) leading to the same non-trivial long distance physics.About:

String theory dynamics in various dimensions
TL;DR: The strong coupling dynamics of string theories in dimension d ⩾ 4 are studied in this paper, where it is argued that eleven-dimensional supergravity arises as a low energy limit of the ten-dimensional Type IIA superstring.

Supergravity and a confining gauge theory: duality cascades and χSB-resolution of naked singularities
TL;DR: In this article, a non-singular pure-supergravity background dual to the field theory on all scales, with small curvature everywhere if the ‘t Hooft coupling gsM is large, was proposed.

Superconformal field theory on threebranes at a Calabi-Yau singularity
Igor R. Klebanov,Edward Witten +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that string theory on AdS5 × X5 can be described by a certain N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theory, which we describe in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theories with Gauge-Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking
TL;DR: Theoretically, these theories allow for a natural suppression of flavour violations in the supersymmetric sector and have very distinctive phenomenological features as discussed by the authors, and the experimental implications of these theories have been discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generalized Global Symmetries
TL;DR: A q-form global symmetry is a global symmetry for which the charged operators are of space-time dimension q; e.g. strings, membranes, etc. as discussed by the authors, which leads to Ward identities and hence to selection rules on amplitudes.

Electric - magnetic duality, monopole condensation, and confinement in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the vacuum structure and spectrum of N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions, with gauge group SU(2), and obtained exact formulas for electron and dyon masses and the metric on the moduli space of vacua.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global Aspects of Current Algebra
TL;DR: In this paper, a new mathematical framework for the Wess-Zumino chiral effective action is described, and it is shown that this action obeys an a priori quantization law, analogous to Dirac's quantization of magnetic change.

Baryons in the 1/n Expansion
TL;DR: In this article, the existing results concerning mesons and glue states in the large-N limit of QCD are reviewed, and it is shown how to fit baryons into this picture.

Magnetic monopoles as gauge particles
Claus Montonen,David I. Olive +1 more
TL;DR: When quantized, the magnetic monopole soliton solutions constructed by 't Hooft and Polyakov, as modified by Prasad, Sommerfield and Bogomolny, form a gauge triplet with the photon, corresponding to a Lagrangian similar to the original Georgi-Glashow one, with magnetic replacing electric charge as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current Algebra, Baryons, and Quark Confinement
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that ordinary baryons can be understood as solitons in current algebra effective lagrangians, and that the formation of color flux tubes can also be seen under certain conditions.
