A local symmetry is a symmetry which is position dependent. Gauge symmetry is an example of a local symmetry, with the symmetry described by a Lie group (which mathematically describe continuous symmetries), which in the context of gauge theory is called the gauge group of the theory.
The components of the gauge field for i = 4 to 9 become scalars upon eliminating the extra dimensions. This also gives an interpretation of the SO(6) R-symmetry as rotations in the extra compact dimensions. By compactification on a T 6, all the supercharges are preserved, giving N = 4 in the 4-dimensional theory.
In theoretical physics, super QCD is a supersymmetric gauge theory which resembles quantum chromodynamics (QCD) but contains additional particles and interactions which render it supersymmetric. The most commonly used version of super QCD is in 4 dimensions and contains one Majorana spinor supercharge.
Therefore, the global Poincaré symmetry, consisting of translational symmetry, rotational symmetry and the inertial reference frame invariance central to the theory of special relativity must apply. The local SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1) gauge symmetry is the internal symmetry .
A gauge theory is a type of theory in physics.The word gauge means a measurement, a thickness, an in-between distance (as in railroad tracks), or a resulting number of units per certain parameter (a number of loops in an inch of fabric or a number of lead balls in a pound of ammunition). [1]
In theoretical physics, more specifically in quantum field theory and supersymmetry, supersymmetric Yang–Mills, also known as super Yang–Mills and abbreviated to SYM, is a supersymmetric generalization of Yang–Mills theory, which is a gauge theory that plays an important part in the mathematical formulation of forces in particle physics.
Seiberg duality is an equivalence of the IR fixed points in an N=1 theory with SU(N c) as the gauge group and N f flavors of fundamental chiral multiplets and N f flavors of antifundamental chiral multiplets in the chiral limit (no bare masses) and an N=1 chiral QCD with N f-N c colors and N f flavors, where N c and N f are positive integers satisfying
A gauge group is a group of gauge symmetries of the Yang–Mills gauge theory of principal connections on a principal bundle. Given a principal bundle P → X {\displaystyle P\to X} with a structure Lie group G {\displaystyle G} , a gauge group is defined to be a group of its vertical automorphisms.
