指出了矩阵模型、拓扑弦和N =1超对称规范理论之间关系的两个推广。首先,我们注意到,通过考虑酉矩阵模型的双标度极限,我们可以得到大N的局部卡-丘几何,工程师N =2规范理论。特别地,Gross-Witten单格元晶格模型的双标度极限给出了SU(2)Seiberg-Witten解,包括其诱导引力修正。其次,我们指出,N =1的ADE规范理论的有效超势项类似地计算的大N多矩阵模型,已被认为是在随机表面上的ADE最小模型的背景下。相关的谱曲线是作为配分函数的Virasoro和W-约束获得的多个分支覆盖。
We point out two extensions of the relation between matrix models, topological strings and N =1 supersymmetric gauge theories. First, we note that by considering double scaling limits of unitary matrix models one can obtain large-N duals of the local Calabi–Yau geometries that engineer N =2 gauge theories. In particular, a double scaling limit of the Gross–Witten one-plaquette lattice model gives the SU(2) Seiberg–Witten solution, including its induced gravitational corrections. Secondly, we point out that the effective superpotential terms for N =1 ADE quiver gauge theories is similarly computed by large-N multi-matrix models, that have been considered in the context of ADE minimal models on random surfaces. The associated spectral curves are multiple branched covers obtained as Virasoro and W-constraints of the partition function.
