Exact partition function

① Add Q-exact term which gives the free kinetic term for each SUSY multiplet. NOTE: Q-exact deformation does not change the partition function!

[Kapustin-Willet-Yaakov ’09] [Jafferis ’10] [Hama-Hosomichi-Lee ’10]

⇒ Supersymmetric localization

cf.

② Take weak coupling limit. ③ Path integral is exactly performed by gaussian integration (WKB approximation). Tree + 1 loop exact!!

Comment on convergence

[Kapustin-Willett-Yaakov '10]

The condition of convergence of the partition function is related to a classification by Gaiotto-Witten of N=4 linear quiver gauge theories without Chern-Simons coupling constant.

The condition of convergence of the partition function is related to a classification by Gaiotto-Witten of N=4 linear quiver gauge theories without Chern-Simons coupling constant. Gaiotto-Witten's classification ① (The dimension of ∀monopole operators) > ½. → “Good” ② (The dimension of ∃monopole operator) = ½. → “Ugly” ③ (The dimension of ∃monopole operator) < ½. → “Bad”

・ We have argued the level/rank duality from partition function by verifying its invariance under the duality transformation, and from type IIB brane realization by moving 5-branes taking into account the Hanany-Witten effect. ・ By performing the integration explicitly (with a suitable regularization) the partition function completely factorized into that of pure CS theory for two gauge groups and an analogous contribution from the hypermultiplet (“Complete factorization”).

Summary

・ We have investigated a minimal N=4 CSM theory from its S3 partition function, which reduces to a matrix model via SUSY localization. ・ We have presented the all order 't Hooft expansion of the free energy, and commented on the connection to the higher-spin theory.
