Superconformal Index on Rp2 × S1 and 3D Mirror Symmetry

by Akinori Tanaka

Book Overview

The author introduces the supersymmetric localization technique, a new approach for computing path integrals in quantum field theory on curved space (time) defined with interacting Lagrangian.

The author focuses on a particular quantity called the superconformal index (SCI), which is defined by considering the theories on the product space of two spheres and circles, in order to clarify the validity of so-called three-dimensional mirror...
