abstract

We study the BPS domain walls of supersymmetric Yang-Mills for arbitrary gauge group. We describe the degeneracies of domain walls interpolating between arbitrary pairs of vacua. A recently proposed large N duality sheds light on various aspects of such domain walls. In particular, for the case of G = SU(N) the domain walls correspond to wrapped D-branes giving rise to a 2+1 dimensional U(k) gauge theory on the domain wall with a Chern-Simons term of level N. This leads to a counting of BPS degeneracies of domain walls in agreement with expected results.

Generalized Global Symmetries

hep-th · 2014-12-16 · accept · novelty 9.0

q-form global symmetries generalize ordinary symmetries to higher-dimensional charged objects, leading to new rules for amplitudes, gauging, breaking, and anomaly inflow in quantum field theories.

Confinement in a finite duality cascade

hep-th · 2026-04-20 · conditional · novelty 5.0

Holographic consistency checks confirm confinement (area law), domain-wall dynamics matching YM-CS theory, and absence of stable axionic strings in a D3/O7-conifold gauge/gravity dual.
