Kavli Affiliate: Kentaro Hori | Summary:We consider the low-energy limit of the two-dimensional theory on k M2-branes suspended between a straight M5-brane and a curved M5-brane. We argue that it is described by an N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theory with no matter fields but with a non-trivial twisted superpotential, and also by an N=(2,2) supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg […]
Kavli Affiliate: Kinfai Mak | First 5 Authors: Kit-Ho Mak, Kit-Ho Mak, , , | Summary: Let $p$ be a prime number, $X$ be an absolutely irreducible affine plane curve over $mathbbF_p$, and $g,finmathbbF_p(x,y)$. We study the distribution of the values of the hybrid exponential sums S_n on $ninmathcalI$ for some short interval $mathcalI$. We […]
